One Pot Cajun Cabbage

Oh this is a gooooooodn’!

A CARB FREE, delicious one pot dish that is super healthy! I have my mother to thank for this recipe. She has made it for a long time and as much as I love this dish, I also love the nostalgia that is attached to it. And Yes I do go back for seconds and feel zero guilt

I will go ahead and tell you, this is a spicy recipe. But please don’t let that scare you away. If thats not your thing, opt for a regular sausage instead of cajun. Maybe pick a mild Rotel, instead of the original . It is easy to make your own. My mother loves to put a tablespoon of butter on the top, and I do too! I think it gives it an extra punch. BUT I have had it without and its equally as delicious.

You will want to use a sautée pan and have a wooden spoon nearby , as you will be stirring the cabbage as it cooks down.

SUPER easy and oh so amazing.

Enjoy!
