[i]This recipe is borrowed from the [url href=”http://www.njagsociety.org/farmers-against-hunger.html”]Farmers Against Hunger[/url] cookbook.[/i] These are cooked as seperate components, but really taste great together. You can use any type of sausage you like here, and it’s even better served with boiled or mashed potatoes!
Ingredients
  • Olive oil
  • 1 1/2 lb sausages (bratwurst, kielbasa, Italian etc.)
  • 2 apples, peeled, cored, halved and cut into wedges
  • 2 tsp brown sugar
  • 1 tsp fresh thyme leaves
  • 7 tbsp butter
  • 1 tbsp vinegar
  • 1 head of cabbage, quartered, cored and leaves torn into large pieces
  • 2 tbsp chopped flat parsley
  • 1/2 bunch fresh chives, chopped
  • Salt and pepper
Instructions
  1. Boil a large pot of water over high heat and add a tsp of salt to it.
  2. Add 1 tbsp of oil to a pan as the water is boiling and cook the sausage over medium heat, turning occasionally. Cook until sausage is browned all over (approx. 15 minutes). Remove from pan and to a separate plate.
  3. Add the apples to the same pan, sprinkle brown sugar and thyme over them. Add 3 tbsp butter and raise heat to medium-high. Cook until apples are slightly brown and soft (approx. 5 minutes).
  4. Add vinegar to the boiling water and then add cabbage. Cook for a few minutes until soft, but still has a slight crunch. Drain, coat with remaining butter, parsley, chives and salt and pepper.
  5. Serve all together!

Ingredients
  • 8 oz dried wide egg noodles
  • 1 cup frozen green peas
  • 3 tablespoons unsalted butter, sliced
  • 12 oz fully cooked smoked sausage (i.e. kielbasa), cut into 1/2-inch rounds

  • 1 medium red bell pepper, cored and thinly sliced (about 2 cups)
  • Kosher salt
  • 1 medium cabbage, cored, quartered, and shredded
  • Freshly ground black pepper
Instructions
  1. Bring a medium pot of salted water to a boil over high heat. Stir in the noodles and cook for 2 minutes less than the minimum time stated on the package.
  2. Stir in the peas and cook until al dente (approx. 2 minutes more)
  3. Drain well, then return the noodles and peas to the warm pot and stir in 1 tablespoon of the butter. Cover to keep warm.
  4. Melt 1 tablespoon of the butter over medium heat in a large pot. Add the kielbasa and cook, stirring occasionally, until browned (approx. 5 minutes).
  5. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the kielbasa to the medium pot and recover.
  6. Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of butter to the now-empty large pot.
  7. Stir in the onion, bell pepper, and a big pinch of salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, until beginning to soften (approx. 5 minutes).
  8. Add the cabbage in batches, stirring until each batch is starting to wilt before adding more. Cover and cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are crisp-tender (approx. 10 minutes)
  9. Stir in the drained noodles, peas and kielbasa mixture.
