The classic roasted sausage and cabbage recipe combo is lightened up with some apples and red wine vinegar. Use any sausage you like—we like a spicy turkey for this dish.

Back to TopWe make this about once a month. Always great. It's an excellent way to roast up any veggies in the fridge - shallot pieces, onion pieces, fennel, any color cabbage, etc. I cut the first half cook time by 5-10 minutes as we like our cabbage with a little tooth. Great with a red wine in the colder months.

This was fantastic and just so simple to prepare and cook. We have a whole crop of green cabbage from our summer garden, so I opted for white wine vinegar instead of the red to preserve the color. I gave it a toss mid-way though and set my sausage on top for the last 15 minutes of cooking. I will definitely be making this often during the fall and winter months.

We make this regularly in the winter! Over the years, we've made some minor tweaks, like doubling the apple and the onion. The key: We always, always serve it with some crusty sourdough toast and slices of sharp cheddar cheese. Load up a piece of toast with cheddar, spicy sausage, and apple-cabbage goodness -- warming and transporting! Love the idea of adding fennel slices and playing with the vinegar component, too. I bet apple cider vinegar would be excellent.
