How to Make Bacon Green Bean Cabbage in a Slow Cooker
Cris here.
I just love this dish. It is a regular side dish around here. Oftentimes I will make up and big pot and divide up portions for lunches and dinners throughout the week. I even have tossed some in my freezer to be able to pull out on super busy nights.
This recipe makes a TON. If you want less, just cut the recipe in half and cook in a 4 quart slow cooker.

August 24, 2017 at 11:43 pmI was just wondering could you use kielbasa or ham hocks instead of bacon.
Cris says
August 29, 2017 at 12:55 amAbsolutely! Just note that if you are counting carbs, the kielbasa will add quite a bit.

August 24, 2017 at 4:15 pmThe 38 oz of Italian green beans, canned? or frozen? or fresh?
Cris says

August 24, 2017 at 2:35 pmJust curious, but why do you need so much liquid? It sounds delicious but more like soup.
Cris says
August 29, 2017 at 12:54 amHi Alisa-
We serve with a slotted spoon, like most of our veggie sides. I have tried cooking cabbage with less liquid in the past and have had trouble with it burning, instead of boiling up.
