Ingredients
- 8oz. wide egg noodles $1.00
- 3 Tbsp butter, divided $0.33
- 1 yellow onion $0.25
- ½ head green cabbage, shredded (5-6 cups) $1.78
- Salt and pepper to taste $0.05
Instructions
- Cook the egg noodles according to the package directions (boil until tender) and then drain in a colander.
- While the noodles are cooking, thinly slice the onion. Remove any dirty or damaged outer leaves of the cabbage. Cut the cabbage into wedges, remove the core, then slice thinly to shred.
- After draining the noodles, add 1 Tbsp of the butter and the sliced onions to the pot used to cook the noodles. Sauté the onions over medium heat just until they begin to soften (about 3 minutes). Add the cabbage and continue to cook until the cabbage is tender (5-7 minutes).
- Return the drained noodles to the pot with the cabbage and onion. Add the remaining 2 Tbsp of butter and stir until the butter is melted and everything is evenly coated. Season the cabbage and noodles liberally with salt and freshly cracked pepper. Serve warm.
