5 strips bacon, minced
1 med. onion, minced
1 med. firm tart apple, peeled, cored and sliced
1 lb. red cabbage (about 1/2 a head), cored, outer leaves removed and remainder shredded
1 bay leaf
1/2 c. maple syrup
Salt and pepper to taste

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In oven proof sauce pan or a flame proof casserole large enough to hold all the ingredients, saute the bacon until crisp. Add the onion and saute until translucent. Add the remaining ingredients, cover and place in oven. Bake for 1/2 hour. Yields 4 to 6 servings.
