Ingredients

  • 1/2 head cabbage shredded or cut in pieces
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt Optional
  • 1 14.5 ounce can diced tomatoes, undrained (could use tomatoes and green chilis, too)
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 1 pound pork breakfast sausage
  • 1/4 cup onion chopped
  • 1/4 cup green pepper chopped
  • 1 teaspoon oregano or Italian seasoning
  • 1 clove of garlic chopped
  • 1 1/2 cups cheese shredded (I used a combination of Mexican and parmesan but you can use cheddar or any cheese you like)

Instructions

  • Steam the cabbage with 1/2 cup water in the microwave for 5 minutes and drain.  Spread cabbage in the bottom of a sprayed casserole dish and sprinkle with black pepper and salt.  Pour the tomatoes over the cabbage along with 1/4 cup water.
  • Cook sausage, onion, green pepper, oregano and garlic on top of the stove until sausage is cooked.  Spread over cabbage.  Add cheese on top.
  • Bake covered in a preheated 350 degree oven for 60 minutes, removing cover the last 15 minutes of cooking.   Makes about 8 servings.

Notes

You could also use smoked sausage in this casserole.  Make it healthy by using turkey sausage and fat free cheeses, too.
