Although it is not quite slow cooker weather here, for many of you it is. Actually, I tend to use the slow cooker all year because it doesn’t heat up the kitchen and it really is a great way to cook meals.
This is so good. You can substitute a good dark ale for the wine if you like with excellent results.
Serve it with a dark rye bread, some sliced Swiss or Gouda, noodles, and you have a great meal happening.
Slow Cooker Red Cabbage and Sausage
- 1 head red cabbage, shredded
- 4 tart apples, cored and diced
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1/2 cup Chardonnay or Gewürztraminer
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1 small onion, chopped
- 1 clove garlic, chopped
- Black pepper to taste
- 1 orange, sliced
- 1 pound kielbasa sausage, cut into pieces
Toss it in the slow cooker and let it cook on low for 6- 8 hours. The house will smell great.
Serves 6-8
