Delicious with a few changes. I used low-fat polish sausage and added sliced red peppers. The peppers added flavor and color. I also used 1 can of beef broth instead of all of that water. Creole seasoning added a kick. We really enjoyed this, and had plenty of leftovers! Be sure you have a big pot to cook this in.

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!!

My fiance was a little skeptical when I told him what I was cooking (he explained what REAL Jambalaya was). Well, when it was done he didn't have much to say because he was too busy stuffing his mouth! I loved it, my kids loved it. A terrific,hearty meal. Will serve again and again. THANKS!!

Very very good! It was easy to make(i cut my finger cutting the cabbage though :( ). I added some cayenne and a red pepper to give it more appeal. Instead of the canned tomatoes, I added two real tomatoes and a little can of tomatoe sauce. I also omitted the celery. Everyone liked it alot, and all took seconds. Definately a recipe to keep!

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...

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!!

Great recipe!! It's not a company meal but made a great supper for the two of us. It freezes well and we had enough for three meals. My kind of cooking. Thanks

I needed to use my largest pot for this recipe. I also added a cup of broth as it needed more liquid I felt. It seemed bland so I added herbs and spices to give it a more Creole taste. The recipe makes a very large amount and I should have halved it as I don't like leftover cabbage.

You need to add more water than given in the recipe. I added some hot salsa to spice it up a bit. I agree with other reviewer who felt it wasn't very eye appealing but it is very tasty. Barb G.

I decided to try this because Susan said her son liked it. I was looking for a homey, comfort recipe that included cabbage, and... wahla! I knew from the start there would not be enough water for 1 cup of rice, however I tried the recipe as written and wound up adding a can of broth and at least 2 cups more water! I also did not want all the meat listed so I used only 1 lb of ground turkey and seasoned it highly with cajun spice and garlic pepper. Not appealing visually, but this tastes REALLY GOOD witha touch of hot sauce added. Have french bread on the side. I would recommend this.
