Fried Cabbage & Noodles (Haluski)

One of my family's favorite meatless dishes is fried cabbage and noodles. People here in the Pittsburgh area call it halushki and it is so good. It Is a staple on our table on cooler nights. Easy to make, cheap to make and easy to eat! If I have leftover ham or chicken I will toss it in with the noodles, but I prefer it with no meat. Enjoy.
