    Maybe it's the Russian and Polish blood running through my veins, but I just love cabbage! If you appreciate the slightly sweet, nutritious, crunchy veggie as much as I do, then you've come to the right place...

    Kielbasa potatoes and cabbage come together in this easy dinner for Sausage and Cabbage!

    How to Prepare this Easy Sausage and Cabbage Dinner:

    Time is precious, and very few of us have the luxury of spending hours in the kitchen each night to get dinner on the table for our family. That's where a simple one pot meal like this kielbasa and cabbage comes in!

    You can literally slice the ingredients, dump them in a pot, and basically forget about them for the next 45 minutes. Don't you just love that idea?

    I used my biggest Dutch oven to accommodate all of the raw cabbage, onion, potatoes, sliced kielbasa, and diced tomatoes. It looks full, but don't worry -- the vegetables will shrink drastically as they cook!

    Sausage and Cabbage Dinner is an easy one pot meal!

    Step #2: Prepare the Sauce for your Sausage and Cabbage Dinner.

    Just whisk together balsamic vinegar, chicken broth, and tomato soup to form a basic sauce. Dump it into the pot, cover with a lid, and stick the pot in the oven to bake for about 45 minutes (or until the veggies are tender).

    I like to stir my pot about halfway through, just to ensure even cooking.

    The next thing you know, you'll have a warm, comforting dinner to serve your family -- and boy is it good.

    This flavor combination reminds me a lot of my Polish grandmother's stuffed cabbage rolls (which I turned into a dump-and-bake casserole), but my version is obviously SO MUCH EASIER.

    Cooking cabbage doesn't have to be difficult or time-consuming!

    Whether it's a Sunday supper that you serve to your family on a lazy fall evening, or just a quick throw-together weeknight meal at the end of a busy work day, I have no doubt that this Dump-and-Bake Sausage and Cabbage Dinner will suit your schedule, your lifestyle, and your tastebuds.

    It might just remind you of your grandmother, too!

    Ingredients

    • 1 medium head of cabbage, shredded
    • 1 onion, diced
    • 2 red potatoes, peeled and diced into bite-sized pieces
    • 1 (13 ounce) package smoked kielbasa sausage, sliced into rounds
    • 1 tablespoon minced garlic
    • 1 teaspoon salt
    • 1 (14.5 ounce) can petite-diced tomatoes, drained
    • 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
    • ½ cup chicken broth
    • 1 cup condensed tomato soup, NOT diluted
    • For garnish: chopped fresh parsley

    Instructions

    • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Spray a large Dutch oven (or other oven-safe pot) with cooking spray.
    • Place cabbage, onion, potatoes, sausage, garlic, salt, and diced tomatoes in the pot.
    • In a separate bowl, whisk together balsamic vinegar, chicken broth, and condensed soup. Pour over cabbage mixture and gently stir to combine. 
    • Cover with a lid and bake for 45 minutes, or until vegetables are tender. I like to stir the pot halfway through the cooking time just to ensure even cooking.
    • Garnish with parsley just before serving.

    Notes

    Cooking Just for Two? Cut the ingredients in half and prepare the dinner in a smaller baking dish. The rest of the cooking instructions remain the same.

      Lovely sounding recipe & I had all ingredients on hand. I’m confident it will taste delicious but after an hour at 400F it’s still not cooked! ( crunchy cabbage & hard potatoes) I’ve bumped the temp up to 425 for an additional 30 minutes. I shredded the cabbage finely just as I would for Casserole Cabbage Rolls & used baby potatoes 1/2ed.

        Wanda...never met a recipe yet that cooks in the time stated! You could put cabbage and potatoes in the microwave for 5 or so minutes, then follow the recipe. Potatoes need at least 1 1/2 hours if not par boiled first.

      This was a huge hit with my entire family. It took about 1.5 hrs to cook, but was delicious.
