kielbasa sausage with cabbage

My mom made kielbasa sausage with cabbage when I was a kid.

I didn’t like it then.

I do now.

I make this recipe a little different from what my mom made. 

I have added penne pasta to the meal, as well as oven crisped potatoes for the top.

I hope you enjoy!

Chop an onion and bell pepper.  Slice up some kielbasa sausage.

I use the 100% beef kielbasa.

Place in a 4qt. sauce pan and cook until the onion and pepper are tender.

There is no need to add extra oil for the onion and pepper.   The sausage will take care of that.

Chop a half a head of cabbage.

And add that to the sautéed meat mixture.

You will want to cook the cabbage until it is tender.

Reduce the heat from medium to low and cover.

Allow this to cook while you prepare the potatoes and pasta.

Slice up some potatoes and place them on a bar pan.

Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with sea salt.

Place in a 400* oven and bake for 20 to 30 minutes.  Stirring half way through.

Cook your pasta.

Season the cabbage mixture according to taste with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder.

Layer the penne pasta in some pasta bowls.

Add the kielbasa and cabbage.

Add your oven fries and pat yourself on the back for making a scrumptious meal.
