Default What are 'greens'?

Alternative suggestions welcomed though! ;-)



I had to become rather inventive this year due to growing rather more
cabbages than I needed! ;-)

One of my favourite dishes which went down rather well with everyone was
cabbage and bacon.

Chop several rashers bacon (or use lard-ons) and fry until crispy and
set aside. Take a large onion, cut in half and thinly slice, sweat off
in a little olive oil in large pan. Add shredded cabbage and place lid
on, turn heat down to low and leave to cook down for 5-10 mins. Season
and stir in bacon before serving with mashed potato!

Yum!
