  1. How easy and delicious this recipe is! I used mild Italian sausages and I sauted the sausage in the dutch oven for a few minutes before adding the cabbage. I did chop the cabbage up a bit, and I put some chunks of carrot in for good measure. Very good, old fashioned comfort food! I will make this again! Thanks Lorac.
     
  2. Lorac! So glad you un-buried this recipe. This is the kind of old-country cooking that reminds me of my Grandma. So easy to throw everything into a casserole dish, cover & forget it! I NEED recipes like this some days! Used mild Italian sausage because that's what I had on hand. The sausage flavored the cabbage nicely. All I had to do was tuck a couple of potatoes into the oven to serve with sour cream and dinner was served! Thanks!

  1. I have made this several times and a variant of it using smoked sausage. Instead of water I use apple cider. I also add a couple of peeled and diced potatoes. This tastes awesome and my son who is a picky eater, who hates cabbage, loves it and requests it often.
     
  2. Excellent. I'm so glad I found this recipe it was so good. I used red cabbage and substituted the water for chicken stock and 1/2 cup red wine. I also added two carrots as well. It was a super easy dinner. Served it wilh butternut squash risotto. DD and DH were very impressed.
     
  3. Thank you for posting this delicious recipe. I used sweet Italian (turkey) and used low sodium chicken broth instead of water. Definitely a keeper in this family!
