For a vegetarian option, omit the bacon and use 2 tablespoons of olive oil or vegetable oil to sauté the vegetables. Consider adding smoked paprika for a bacon-like flavor. Feel free to experiment with different types of noodles, such as egg noodles or spaetzle. For added depth of flavor, consider adding a splash of apple cider vinegar or a pinch of caraway seeds while cooking the cabbage. This dish is great served as a side or as a complete meal. Add some kielbasa sausage for more protein.

Follow The Directions
01
Step
10 mins
Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add the kluski noodles and cook according to package directions until al dente, about 7-10 minutes. Drain well, reserving about 1/2 cup of the pasta water. Set aside.
02
Step
8 mins
While the noodles are cooking, place the chopped bacon in a large, deep skillet or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the bacon is crispy and golden brown, about 5-8 minutes. Remove the bacon with a slotted spoon and set aside, leaving the rendered bacon fat in the skillet.
03
Step
10 mins
Add the chopped onion to the skillet with the bacon fat and cook until softened and translucent, about 3-5 minutes. Add the chopped cabbage and cook, stirring occasionally, until the cabbage is wilted and tender-crisp, about 8-10 minutes.
04
Step
3 mins
Return the cooked bacon to the skillet with the cabbage and onion mixture. Add the cooked noodles and toss gently to combine. If the mixture seems dry, add a little of the reserved pasta water to moisten. Season with hot sauce, salt, and freshly ground black pepper to taste.
05
StepContinue to cook for another 2-3 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together. Serve hot and enjoy!
