Name: Fried Cabbage with Sausage

Ingredients:

• 1 stick butter or margarine
• 1 small head of cabbage, chopped
• 1 small onion, chopped
• 1 pound smoked sausage, sliced into round pieces
• 1 (15 ounce) can diced tomatoes or Ro-Tel tomatoes
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon pepper

Instructions:

• Melt butter in large skillet.
• Add cabbage and onion, and cook on medium high for about 5 minutes, stirring to keep from sticking to pan.
• Add remaining ingredients, cover and simmer for 20 to 25 minutes.

Comments: Ro-Tel tomatoes is a brand that combines diced tomatoes with green chilis.
8/9/2017 - I used 2/3 of a cabbage, because a whole one would overflow my skillet, and a Hillshire Farms 13-oz chicken smoked sausage. I forgot to cover the skillet when simmering. It was good, served with roasted red potatoes.
12/4/2019 - I made it with a small red cabbage, 12-oz of Nature’s Promise Basil Pesto Chicken Sausage and one Field Roast veggie Italian sausage. The cabbage and tomatoes made it very colorful. I served it with the roasted red potatoes again.
9/3/2022 - I used half a red cabbage, nearly all of a large onion, 26 oz of Field Roast-brand Smoked Apple & Sage Plant-based Saugage. We agreed that the sausage did not taste like real meat. I served it with boiled baby potatoes.
8/12/2023 - I used a small red cabbage, a small yellow onion, about 19-oz Field Roast veggie Italian sausage, and fresh plum tomatoes. I did not use any salt or pepper. The cabbage filled the skillet, but cooked down enough to allow the other ingredients to be added. It was very colorful and tasty.
