"This is an EASY recipe. My son hates cabbage but will eat this like crazy. You can make it low fat by using ground turkey and low fat sausage. They won't know the difference."

Hey Susan, my girls thought this dish was delicious and they gave it four stars, however, my hubby absolutely flipped over it and said, Oh man, definitely five stars"! I did tweak it a bit to suit our tastes. Normally I would brown my meat first so I can drain the fat, but the recipe called for browning the meat along with the vegies, and no draining was mentioned. I did do that but then put everything in a colander to get rid of the fat. I added a green pepper, used red onion and in addition to the tomatos I used about half of a large can of tomato sauce. I also seasoned with garlic and onion powders, cayenne pepper and "Essence". Hubby is home alone every Wednesday night (poor guy. yeah, right) and was not only thrilled with his dinner but also with the "Crunch Drop" cookies I made this afternoon. (also on this site) I rarely see him eat desserts but he polished off quite a few! I'm always looking for different ways to use cabbage, as it's such a nutritious veggie and this was truly great. Thanks Susan!

To anyone who has reservations about trying this recipe: If you like spicy, esp. jambalaya, or rice based recipes - this is truly a great way to combine the beloved with something as mundane as cabbage, voila! This is the umpteenth time I've made this...I was one of the first to review it in '04. Like other reviewers, I've modified this recipe to give it some umph! I use rotel, hot sm. sausage, Creole or Old Bay seasonings...I even throw in a can of black-eyed peas. Cornbread and Iced Tea to boot! Gotta Love it! Yeah, I'm a Texas Girl...

If you are familiar with Polish food, this tastes a lot like Golumpki (sp?)but this is much less work. Instead of garlic salt, I used Lawry's seasoning salt; for the sausage I had linguica on hand(Portugese sausage)and it was very good. Kielbasa would also be excellent. I scaled the recipe up so I would have leftovers. I recommend adding water (or perhaps spaghetti/tomato sauce diluted with water) when re-heating this. My family rated this a keeper. If you think your kids don't like cabbage, you'd be surprised how much they'll like this.

My husband and I loved it. A very hearty meal. I added more spices, okra, and doubled the water. We will definitely be eating this again!!

YUM! This is the best Jambalayah recipe I've found! My hubby loved it. I did make a few probably unorthodox changes, I was trying to figure out something to do with the "spiced cabbage water" that was left over after having cooked a corned beef a few nights earlier, since my hubby won't eat cabbage by itself. I used this as the base for the Jambalayah, and it came out WOW! I also used Italian Sausage instead of smoked, gave it a little extra kick, and added a bit more spices to perk it up a bit, I also left out the celery and added green peppers. I am definately going to try this one again. (Maybe after next time I do corned beef!) LOL...

Yummy! Hot and spicy. I used andouille instead of smoked sausage. Also used brown rice instead of white and added extra beef broth and a can of Rotel with the diced tomatoes. Added homemade cajun seasoning too. Awesome!

This recipe is delicious. Based on other reviews, I used beef stock (approx 4 cups) instead of water. I used 2 cans of seasoned diced tomatoes. I added Old Bay and cajun seasoning to spice it up. I also added a small can of diced chili peppers as well as a half pkg of dried onion soup mix. Since others said the rice may get mushy, I cooked my brown rice separately. I used 1 cup of rice to 1 1/2 cup of water (instead of the usual 2 c water to 1 c rice) so that the rice would cook completely once added in the end. Delicious!!

My Wife and I really like this dish. The cabbage adds a new twist to "jambalaya". I agree with everyone else on the liquid content. I omitted the water and used three cans of broth, plus a few extra cloves of garlic. Mmmm!! I will certainly make this dish again. Thanks for the great recipe!!

I thought this recipe was great. My husband loved it and he is not necessarily crazy about cabbage. I did what the other reviewers suggested and used broth instead of water. I also added the red peppers and creole seasoning. You can also play around with the different kinds of sausage. The first time I mad this with the smoked sausage and then the second time I made it, I used Kielbasa. It is also great if you add some hot sauce to it. I love mine spicey and serve this with sweet maple cornbread. They go great together!!
