Bubble and Squeak

Bubble and Squeak brings together tender cabbage, soft sliced potatoes, and smoky bits of bacon and ham, seared in a skillet until the edges turn golden and crisp. It tastes hearty and savory with a touch of sweetness from caramelized onions and a hint of paprika. Serve it hot for a comforting dinner or as a satisfying way to enjoy leftovers the next day.
