Cabbage Sausage Casserole

This recipe was inspired by some traditional cabbage roll recipes, but made in as few steps as I could manage with a toddler running around. Most of the cooking is passive. I used a chicken fontina and spinach sausage, but I'm sure others like a spicy beef sausage would also be great.

• Ready In: 2 hrs 30 mins
• Serves: 8

Ingredients

• Filling

• 1  cabbage, chopped small
• 1  lb mushroom, sliced
• 1 (8 ounce) can diced tomatoes

• 1⁄2 onion, diced
• 1  lb  chicken sausage

• Sauce

• 4  tablespoons  Braggs Aminos or 4  tablespoons soy sauce
• 3  tablespoons spicy mustard
• 1  teaspoon caraway seed, ground
• 1  cup water or 1  cup  stock

Directions

1. Combine all ingredients in oven safe casserole dish.
2. Bake at 350F for 1 hour covered.
