Cabbage Kielbasa Soup

We eat cabbage year round, from coleslaw to roasted or steamed as a side dish but for winter, cabbage is a go-to soup addition . . . as in this one where it is paired with kielbasa.

Cabbage Kielbasa Soup    8-10 Servings

2 tablespoons olive oil

1 medium onion, chopped

1 pound smoked kielbasa or Polish sausage, sliced thin (I remove the casing if it is thick)

1 small head cabbage, thinly sliced and chopped

3 large carrots, chopped                     

3 to 4 cups beef broth

1 teaspoon Kosher salt

½ teaspoon pepper

1.  In a Dutch oven or soup kettle, heat olive oil and sauté the onions, and kielbasa.

2.  Add cabbage and carrots.

3.  Add the stock; bring to a boil and reduce heat; cover and simmer for about an hour or until vegetables are tender.
