Warm Cabbage Salad With Bacon and Blue Cheese image

"Bacon drippings add flavor to the sauteed vegetables, and the bacon crumbles are the finishing touch on top of the salad. A simple reduction of the cider concentrates the apple essence in the dressing. It's a technique you can use to intensify the flavor of all manner of sauces and dressings." Kathryn Conrad in Cooking Light Magazine.

This salad is a great way to use up leftover cabbage. It's also a great side dish for grilled chicken or fish.

This salad was a disaster! The cabbage was tough, the bacon was burnt, and the dressing was watery. I do not recommend this recipe.

I found this salad to be a bit too rich for my taste. The bacon and blue cheese were a bit overwhelming. I think I'll try a lighter dressing next time.

This salad was just okay. The cabbage was a bit too crunchy for my taste, and the dressing was a little bland. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.

This salad was so easy to make and it turned out great! I used a pre-shredded cabbage mix to save time, and I cooked the bacon in the oven for easy cleanup. The dressing was simple but flavorful.
