All 5 of my children loved this stew. It was super easy to make. I made it exactly as written except I didn't use celery.

The first time I made this, it was without meat, my husband actually liked it and requested it again but with me. So I've made this recipe about 5 times now and my husband loves it. My changes: No water, 2 cans of tomatoes with liquid (one diced), I soak my own red beans instead of ranch style (it doesnt make a difference), and I use ground turkey for a leaner meal.

This is good, made as directed with a heavy hand measuring the picante as well as cumin. Tasted like Mexican cabbage soup, which was good, just not anything we went too crazy for. Good way to use cabbage up, simple ingredients, would make again for the above mentioned reasons but not likely something we will have a craving for.

This is one of my family's favorites. Even my kids don't notice the cabbage, because it's well cooked within the stew. Flavor is great. I make this a lot in the fall.

Cabbage Patch Stew Haiku: "Wow, this was awesome! This recipe surprised me. Easy and tasty!" Followed the recipe exactly as written, although my stewed tomatoes turned out to be a "Mexican-seasoned" type, which probably added an additional flavor bump. Ranch style beans are a must as well. i thought the cabbage would disappear to mush after being the crockpot that long, but it was great, and frankly, we thought it a yummy, healthy alternative to having pasta in a soup/stew. Looking forward to making this again!

I'm giving this one 5 stars. Hubby and I really liked it a lot. I did use diced tomatoes w/chilies because that's what I had. It was nicely spicy and really great for lunch the following day. I think next time I might put a little more cabbage in it though. Excellent and sure to be a favorite again and again.

Great recipe! Perfect to throw in the slow cooker and come home to a cooked meal. Beans were a little different in this recipe, but they add more protein. Not sure I'll include them next time. I cooked it on high for 3 1/2 hours and it was delicious!
