How to Make Award Sausage Stew Pot

  1. Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat.
  2. Add 1 pound of Italian sausage (removed from casings), 1 medium onion (chopped), 8 ounces of sliced mushrooms, 1 green bell pepper (sliced), and 2 cloves of garlic (minced). Cook for 5-7 minutes, or until the sausage is browned and the vegetables are softened.
  3. Pour in 4 cups of water or chicken broth, add 4 cups of shredded green cabbage, 1 cup of brown or green lentils, 2 tablespoons of apple cider vinegar, 1 tablespoon of brown sugar, 2 beef bouillon cubes, and 1/8 teaspoon of freshly ground black pepper.
  4. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce heat to low.
  5. Cover and simmer for 15-20 minutes, or until the lentils and vegetables are tender. Stir occasionally.
  6. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed. Consider adding a bay leaf during simmering for extra depth of flavor (remove before serving).
