Polish Cabbage Soup
1 lb. Kielbasa or other cooked, smoked sausage, cut into ½” coins
4 cups chicken stock
2-3 medium potatoes, peeled and cubed
1 small head of cabbage, cored and shredded
1 large onion, chopped
2t caraway seeds
Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
Combine all ingredients in a slow cooker or large pot. Cook tightly covered on high heat or simmer over a very low flame for 5 to 6 hours. Serves 4 to 6.
Notes:
I never thought that my kids would eat this, but it passes because the potatoes and sausage. They don’t even seem to notice the cabbage… somehow. {shrug} Ya just don’t ask questions when your kids eat cabbage without complaining. Though personally, that amount of cabbage is a little much. I tend to use a little less than one half of a large head of cabbage. Oh, and I think I double the stock proportion. But you give it a try and see what ya think.
