Spicy Bacon Cabbage & Noodles is your new favorite dish! Flavorful and perfect for dinner or side dish. Bacon, onions, cabbage and jalapenos tossed with egg noodles, yum!

I love making Fried Cabbage and Bacon.  It is a Southern staple and one of our favorite sides to go with dinner.  We love having it as a dinner with egg noodles and sausage but adding egg noodles and jalapenos take it over the top as the best side dish ever.

Jalapeños add just the perfect kick that goes great with the smoky bacon and cabbage.  I also saute some onions with this and man this side dish is so flavorful!

You can make this Spicy Bacon Cabbage & Noodles and add some rotisserie chicken and have a hearty, delicious dinner in no time.  Even the leftovers are amazing.

I love this recipe because it’s

• Full of flavor
• Versatile
• Customizable
• Easy

P.S You can leave out the jalapeños if you have kiddos or just don’t like spicy. You can also substitute chopped green chiles for a milder flavor.

Ingredients

• Bacon- Use your favorite bacon
• Onion- I like to use a sweet onion for this but whatever you have on hand will work.
• Preshredded coleslaw mix- This is the bag of coleslaw mix you find in the produce section, it is just the cabbage not mixed with the sauce. 
• Jalapeno diced-  Fresh or canned is fine.
• Egg Noodles- We prefer the wider ones.
• Butter- For flavor.
