Sausage Cabbage Casserole
Sausage Cabbage Casserole
"There’s something comforting about this cabbage and smoked sausage combo that makes this dish suitable for winter-time family dinners. Even if you’re not a big fan of cabbage, you’ll appreciate the melt-in-your mouth flavors in this simple and quick dish. And at only about 280 calories per serving, you can enjoy it guilt-free alongside your favorite keto side dish.Since this is a cabbage-based dish, it comes with many health benefits associated with cruciferous vegetables. Researches found that cruciferous vegetables are particularly high in antioxidant phytochemicals found to help prevent cancer. Cabbage is also a good source of vitamin K, folate, and fiber."
NotesBecause this is a fairly simple dish to make, with very few flavorings, it’s important that you choose quality ingredients to bring out the best of flavors. When buying smoked sausage, check the label for soy, potato starch, beef protein, and preservatives. Go for natural sausages containing only pork (or beef) and spices. When buying cabbage, choose heads with compact leaves and that feel heavy for their size. The outer leaves should have a deep color, be shiny, and not have any discoloration.
