Ingredients
- 1 pound Italian sausage casing removed
- 1 medium yellow onion chopped
- 2 cups marinara sauce
- 2 teaspoons paprika
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 tablespoon sriracha hot sauce optional
- 1 pound bag shredded cabbage
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Place a frying pan over medium heat. Add the sausage, breaking it up with a spoon. Cook for about 5 minutes or until mostly cooked. Drain any fat. Add the onion to the pan and cook for an additional 2 minutes. You can also do this step in the slow cooker if it has a saute function.
- Transfer the sausage and onion to a slow cooker. Add the marinara sauce, paprika, garlic powder, sriracha hot sauce and shredded cabbage. Stir to combine.
- Cook on low for 4-6 hours. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Notes
- You can use any type of sausage you prefer. I’ve made the recipe with Italian sausage, chicken and turkey sausage and it has turned out well each time.
- Be sure to drain off any fat after cooking the sausage to get rid of any excess grease.
- If you don’t want to use a bag of pre-shredded cabbage, you can shred your own cabbage in a food processor or by using a sharp knife.
- The sriracha sauce adds a little kick of heat. If you prefer to limit any spiciness, you can leave it out.
