Slow Cooker 4-Ingredient Sausage and Cabbage

Here’s a super simple slow cooker version of sausage and cabbage — just 4 ingredients and full of flavor. 🥬🌭

🥘 Slow Cooker 4-Ingredient Sausage & Cabbage

Ingredients

• 1 medium head of cabbage, chopped into wedges or large chunks

• 1 lb (450 g) smoked sausage (kielbasa or your favorite), sliced into 1-inch pieces

• 1 cup chicken broth (or water for lighter flavor)

• 1 tsp salt & pepper (to taste)

Instructions

1. Prep the slow cooker

   • Place the chopped cabbage in the bottom of the slow cooker.

2. Add the sausage

   • Lay the sliced sausage over the cabbage.

3. Add liquid & seasoning

   • Pour chicken broth over everything.

   • Sprinkle salt and pepper.

4. Cook

   • Cover and cook on low for 5–6 hours or high for 2–3 hours, until cabbage is tender and sausage is heated through.

5. Serve

   • Spoon into bowls with some of the broth — optional: top with a little mustard or fresh parsley.

🔥 Tips

• For extra flavor, add 1 chopped onion or 2 cloves garlic — still very simple.

• Sliced potatoes or carrots can be added for a hearty meal.

• Smoked sausage adds most of the seasoning; adjust salt accordingly.

If you want, I can also give a version with a tangy mustard sauce that turns this into a slightly fancier one-pot dinner without adding extra ingredients.
