Kielbasa and cabbage
by Cuprunnethover 8 months ago
I grew up with cooked cabbage and sausage as a fall/winter staple. It is filling and economical. The only problem I have is my hubby and daughter trying to beat each other to the sausage. Sometimes I have to cook a second sausage to satisfy their cravings. Yum we love you sausage! Simply the best flavor and seems less greasy and chewy than others.

Easy Dinner
by Sam1026 8 months ago
with such a busy schedule its the easiest thing to prepare in such a short amount of time and combine the sausage with just about anything to add a different taste to classic dishes or to just make something of your own. my favorite thing to do is cook the sausage in the oven at 350 for like 45 mins to get the outside crispy make some bow tie pasta and some veggies and when all is cooked mix together with a white sauce and add some parm cheese its such a great dinner for a busy life style even my husband can make it!

Authentic... Delicious.. Good as an Ingredient, or by itself as a main dish...
by ZenOfJazz 8 months ago
As someone who's been cooking for 40 years, and a frequent cook of Cajun dishes, the recent introduction of Johnsonville's Andouille filled a real need in my life. I don't have to mail order Andouille, when I want to make authentic Jambalaya, Gumbo or Red Beans & Rice. Now I just pop into my neighborhood grocery, and pick up the always right flavor of Johnsonville's Andouille. Authentic flavor is the reason I keep coming back. Quality ingredients is why I picked it up the first time.

by HeffOBX 8 months ago
I substituted brown rice to make this dish, and it gave it a thicker texture which my husband and I loved. I'm going to try using French-cut green beans next time instead of the zucchini to add a bit more vitamins. Definitely a repeat recipe in our house!
