This dish is wonderful for potlucks or just for the family. You can control the spice.

Blue Ribbon Recipe

This spicy Cajun cabbage is like a good Southern fried cabbage brought up a few levels. Don't be afraid of the name, the spice level can be controlled. The combination of Creole seasoning and celery seed is what makes this cabbage special. Ample amounts of savory crumbled bacon also make this side dish delicious.
