Cabbage, Kielbasa, Veggie Comfort

Submitted by: Rose Townsend

**Quantity of each ingredient is at the cook's discretion and personal taste.

Ingredients:
Cabbage (Park's Everlast Hybrid) cut in quarters
Corn (Early Sunglow) cut in halves or quarters depending on size of ear
Kielbasa (or sausage of your choice) cut in 2-3 inch pieces
Potato (Yukon Gold) cut in halves, quarters, or slices - your choice
Carrot (Scarlet Nantes) cut in 1-2 inch pieces

In a Dutch oven or stockpot, layer cabbage, corn, kielbasa, potatoes, and carrots. Add about 1/2 inch of water, cover and simmer/steam around 1 hour or until veggies is cooked. Be sure to occasionally check the water level for evaporation. I don't add seasoning while cooking since there is already such a variety of flavors.  Guests can season to taste after the dish is plated. For a variation you can also add fresh green beans, such as Green Bean Provider.

 

Gardeners' Quotes

"You can tell which diseases tomatoes are resistant to by looking for letters such as V, F, N and T after the name of the tomato.  Each letter represents a problem the plant is bred to resist, and the more letters the better!"
