Dinner in 20: Sausage with cabbage and potatoes


This quick meal has lots of flavor and some green veggies to boot. My kids loved it, in fact there were no-leftovers! If you like, you can use fresh white potatoes instead of canned, it will add a couple of extra minutes to the cooking time though.

Sausage with cabbage and potatoes

2-3 Cans sliced/diced potatoes or 4-5 diced white potatoes
1 package smoked sausage, diced
1-1 lb bag cole slaw mix
shredded cheddar cheese

Heat large skillet over medium high heat, add 2 T oil and potatoes. While potatoes begin to brown, dice the sausage.

After the potatoes start browning, add the meat and continue to cook until potatoes are well browned. When potatoes are done, add cole slaw, turn down heat to medium low and cover skillet for a couple of minutes.

When cabbage is wilted,toss the mixture, top with cheese, remove from heat and cover again, until the cheese melts.

If you want to double to recipe, use a large (4qt) pot.

This is good with apple sauce and rye bread.

It would also be a good filling for flat bread wraps.
