Good for what ails you Cabbage, Kale & Apple Hot Toss

This is one of those super comforting good for what ails you meals for chilly nights when all you want to do is curl up with some runny egg yolks and huddle under the blankets. It won’t be winning any beauty pageants, but it is warm, filling, comforting, gluten-free & paleo-friendly.

Good For What Ails You Cabbage, Kale & Apple Hot Toss

1 head Savoy cabbage, cored and sliced
1 Granny Smith apple, cored and sliced
1/2 large yellow onion, sliced
1 bunch Lactino kale, washed and sliced into ribbons
1 Tbsp. carraway seeds
2 Tbsp. garlic powder
2 Tbsp. onion powder
1 Tbsp. white pepper
Salt to taste
2 eggs per person
Bacon
Coconut oil

In your largest skillet over medium heat, melt 1 Tbsp. coconut oil. Once the oil is melted and the pan is hot, add your cabbage, onion and kale. I happen to like my apples on the disintegratey side, so I added them at this point as well. If you like firmer apples, wait until 5 minutes or so before the end of cooking.

Sautee 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally to avoid burning, until browned and softened. I hit the mixture twice during cooking with the spices and some salt; you might want to add all of it in the beginning. Either method works, just taste as you go.

In a separate pan, crisp your bacon. Set aside and add the eggs to the hot fat. Fry till your heart’s content.

Serves 2 for dinner or 1 for dinner with 2 lunch portions left over.

Oh, yay, look: it’s snow. We’re it December and not a week after a major natural disaster, I’d muster proper excitement. Nembu, I’m afraid, will have to be excited for the both of us.
