It is not egg noodles, but a package of ramen noodles cooked and drained.
then depending on the size of cabbage head, you boil one or two of the ramen
noodle packages, keeping the flavoring packs to the side. You fried the
whole package of bacon, crisp, then remove from pan, place on paper towels,
leaving the bacon grease in the pan. Cut up the head of cabbage in slices
with maybe medium sized leaves. Then separate and place in pan with the
bacon grease to fry. Once pan is covered all over with a layer of cabbage,
sprinkle garlic powder over that layer, and crumbled up fried bacon, before
continuing. Then placing another layer of cabbage, keeping this up till
all cabbage is in pan. Top layer with garlic powder also, and, what is left
of crumble bacon. Using the whole pound of crisp fried bacon. You then just
with spatula start to turn the cabbage over and over in the pan with the
grease to fry the cabbage down. I place a lid over pan in between, turning
it often. When the cabbage is cooked down, you then add the cooked, drained
ramen noodles on top of it, sprinkling the flavor packages that came in the
ramen noodle packages, over the noodles and mix this all together turning it
in the fried cabbage. Finally, you add one large container of cottage
cheese. Your choice of small curd, or large curd. I like to use the large
curd. You empty the whole container on top of the mixture and stir this all
up in with the rest of the ingredients. I then just put the lid on top so it
will have a few mins to soak in the flavors with the fire very low, or off.
You then just dish it up and you have a wonderful meal by itself or if you
wanted to serve it with something else guess you could. We eat it alone.
Sounds very strange, but believe me every time I make it everyone loves it
once they try it. If any is left, it is even good warmed up in the microwave
the next day too.

Katie, or Wee1, can correct any mistakes I make, as I'm typing this from
memory:
You'll need a large skillet for most of this, and a pot to cook the
noodles in.
Ingredients:
1 head of red or green cabbage.
1 pound of bacon
1 large container of cottage cheese
1 small bag of egg noodles.
salt and pepper to taste.
Method:
Fry all of the bacon in the skillet until not quite crisp. Do not discard
the grease.
Separate the head of cabbage into leaves.
Add the cabbage to the bacon, salt and pepper and fry the cabbage in the
bacon grease.
Boil the egg noodles according to package directions.
Add the noodles to the bacon and cabbage.
Add the cottage cheese and mix thoroughly. Heat until the whole mixture
is hot.
Now, have a real tasty meal.
It might not sound that good, but if you love fried cabbage like I do,
this meal is a real treat! Katie and I get 2 meals out of this, and there
is enough for another small helping. Note, though, that I have one! big!
appetite! when it comes to fried cabbage. I think it should serve 6 to 8
people.
