Saving money, the saga continues

From our What's Cooking Tonight file:
One-pot Irish Cabbage
This simple dish is more suited to winter, but it will work on a cool, spring night. It's as frugal as a feast can be.
1 head green cabbage, cored and roughly chopped
1 onion, diced
1 slice of bacon, chopped
salt and pepper to taste
1 tablespoon of butter
Toss everything in a Dutch oven; cook about 10 over low-medium heat, stirring occasionally to combine everything well and until the cabbage is tender. Cover, add 1/4 cup water, then turn heat to low and let it braise another 20 minutes or so. Adjust seasoning.
