Cabbage Stew

                                          Contributed by Terrie Carpenter

BROWN:
*2 Pounds thinly sliced or ground turkey sausage with 

*1 Green pepper, diced large.
*1 Large onion
*Cloves of garlic to taste (I use 3)
*2 TBS Coconut oil.
Brown until sausage is done.


ADD:
*1 pound carrots, sliced like you like them
*Small head of cabbage, chopped in bite-sized pieces
*Handful of fresh parsley, torn small
*Cook about 20 more minutes, stirring frequently

ADD:
*4 cups diced tomato ( if using canned, also add juice)
*Beef stock to desired juiciness of broth

CONTINUE to cook until carrots don't crunch. On med-low, this takes about two hours. Add broth as desired or needed. Then...
ADD:
*6 medium potatoes, diced bite-sized
*Optional:
*2 cups corn
The longer this cooks, the better it tastes! I often transfer it to a crock-pot for an all-day cooking. It's wonderful served shredded cheddar on top and with a hot crusty bread on the side!
