Smoked Sausage, Cabbage & Potato Soup
We are ICED IN! No work or school today and no school tomorrow! I was in the mood for soup with cabbage. I found this recipe and made a few changes to fit our preferences. It turned out so good. It was a tad bit on the spicy side because we used 2 teaspoons of creole seasoning, but you could definitely use less to make it a little more family friendly. We served it with grilled cheese made with sharp cheddar cheese. 🙂
Smoked Sausage, Cabbage & Potato Soup
Ingredients
2 Tbsp oil
2 potatoes, diced
1 lb smoked sausage diced
1 onion diced
3 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 head cabbage, chopped
1 quart chicken broth
1 quart water
1 bay leaf
2 tsp Tony Chachere’s creole seasoning (or less depending on your heat preferences)
salt and pepper to taste (We seasoned ours with a little bit of Lawry’s seasoning salt… SO good)
Directions
Heat oil in large soup pot over medium high heat. Add potatoes, sausage & onion. Cook for 10 minutes, stirring often. Add garlic and cook for 2 minutes more. Add cabbage, chicken broth, water, Tony Chachere’s seasoning, & a bay leaf. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to medium/low and partially cover. Cook for 45 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove bay leaf and season with salt and pepper to taste. I like to cover and let sit for 2 hours to let the flavors meld together.
