My mother first created this for our family in high school. Now that I'm on my own, I make it at least once a month. It is so comforting!

Cabbage and Smoked Sausage Pasta

(16 ounce) package farfalle (bow tie) pasta

butter

garlic,

olive oil

cabbage,

salt and pepper

smoked sausage, sliced

Parmesan cheese

Fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring to a rolling boil over high heat. Once the water is boiling, stir in the bow tie pasta and return to a boil. Cook the pasta uncovered, stirring occasionally, until the pasta has cooked through, but is still firm to the bite, about 12 minutes. Drain well in a colander set in the sink.


Melt the butter in a large pot over medium heat. Add the garlic, olive oil, and cabbage; season with salt and pepper; cook until tender, about 15 minutes. Stir in the sausage and bow tie pasta; cook until completely heated, about 5 minutes more. Top with Parmesan cheese and serve immediately.


This is a great recipe for cabbage lovers -like me.  My prep is alittle different. I use the same ingredients but slice rather than shred and I also throw in a big sliced onion and about a cup of beef stock.  Into the big frying pan it all goes until tender. Finally I dump the pasta in a well I made in the middle of the cabbage and align pieces of the sausage around the pan like spokes on a wagon wheel for presentation. (I fry the sausage first - sometimes I use Keeebassa)

I made this recipe the other night for dinner. My husband loved it! I followed the recipe as written except I used a small head of cabbage and added one sliced onion. I also put in more garlic than called for because we love garlic. We forgot to put the cheese on top but it was great without it. This recipe is a keeper.

I leave out the garlic because I can't have it. 15 minutes cook time on the cabbage is too long. You will get a bitter tasting very pronounced cabbage flavor by cooking it that long. No more than 7 or 8 minutes is plenty.

This was just darn good. With minimal ingredients the flavor was wonderful. The only changes I made was to cut down on the butter added 1 extra clove of garlic and I used macaroni because I didn't have bow tie pasta on hand. I served it to my husband and a friend neither who like cabbage and my friend asked me to send him the recipe!!! How cool is that?

This was a very quick and easy meal. It tasted wonderful! One of the other reviewers said that you should only cook the cabbage for like 5 minutes. I ended up cooking my cabbage for probably 15 minutes and I like to still have some crunch to it so it is all on your preference of how cooked you like your cabbage. My husband and I loved this and it reheated really well too! That is an important factor for me because my husband and I both usually pack lunches for the next day. Thanks for the great recipe!

This is a very filling meal! Would be great for families trying to stretch their grocery dollars!  I cooked the pasta as stated in the recipe.  However, I made a few changes to the cabbage mixture.  First I cut back the amount of oil & butter by 1/4.  I added 1/2 chopped medium onion to the oil first, then the cabbage, then the garlic. (Chopped not minced).  Then I added the sausage and let the whole mix cook together for about 15 minutes.  Next time I'm thinking of browning the sausage first, then adding all the veggies so that more of the sausage flavor will be in the cabbage.  Overall, very good and VERY filling!

My husband brother and I liked this a lot. My normally not-picky kids ate it but weren't crazy about it. There's definitely way too much butter/oil going on so it gets a little on the heavy side after a few bites. I added red peppers and vidalia onions to mine to compliment the smoked sausage which added color and flavor. I would have given it 5 stars if I'd listened to other reviewers and decreased the butter and oil.

My family loves this recipe. It is definitely comfort food. I cut down on the butter and olive oil quite a bit. Last time I added some paprika and it was a great addition. I use lean smoked turkey sausages to cut down on the fat a little.

This is a good tasting recipe except for the fact that it has too much oil and butter that is unnecessary as most other's said. Way out of proportion to what would be needed. That's the only reason I gave this 4 stars instead of 5. I halved the recipe and used only about 3 tblps of olive oil no butter or margarine used a whole large clove of garlic for the half recipe and added sliced fresh carrots. It was awesome! I also added shredded cheddar instead as my husband does not like parmesan.

My low rating is for the dish prepared as published.  It was very greasy and lacked flavor IMO.  However, I made this again with a lot of my own adjustments and LOVED it!  I only used a 1/4C. butter, no olive oil.  I also browned the sausage first with a sliced onion, then removed the sausage and continued to cook the onion with the garlic and cabbage in the sausage grease/butter.  The original recipe just lacked something and I couldn't figure it out really, but I did drizzle the whole thing lightly with soy sauce and BAM, it was delish!  I will be making this again with the adjustments and love that it's very economical!
