Sausage Cabbage Stew


Nothing makes me crave soup more than a cold day in December. This stew is an excellent way to use up those not-so-new vegetables before they pass the point of no return!

Serves: 4
Prep: 10 mins
Cooking: 45 mins

Ingredients:
  • 1/2 lb Italian sausage or kielbasa (pre-cooked), cut into half inch pieces
  • 1 tbsp butter or oil
  • 4 scallions or 1 small onion, chopped
  • 1 tbsp minced garlic
  • 2 cups chicken broth
  • 1 can (15 oz) tomato sauce
  • 1 can (15 oz) chopped tomatoes
  • 1 1/2 cups water
  • 2 cups shredded cabbage
  • 1-2 carrots, chopped
  • 4-5 small golden potatoes, cubed
  • salt and pepper to taste

 Directions:
  1. Saute sausage, scallions, and garlic in butter until scallions are translucent.
  2. Add remaining ingredients.
  3. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer for 45 minutes or until carrots are tender.
  4. Serve with rolls to sop up the yummy broth.
