Hello, I made the @bonappetitmag maple bacon cabba Hello, I made the @bonappetitmag maple bacon cabbage recipe and adapted it to work with what I had. One day I will regularly buy shallots…  The recipe is on my website this week- check shutterbean.com if you’re interested.  The charred bits are my favorite part.  Leftovers are great with poached eggs and toast. Maybe add it to your cozy weekend plans? Xo, Tracy  #shutterbeanmealprep #bonappetitmag
