              • Ingredients:
          • 1 head of green cabbage, shredded
          • 1 pound Kielbasa, sliced into 1/2-inch pieces
          • 1 onion, chopped
          • Several cloves of chopped garlic, to taste
          • Cooking oil of choice
          • 1 16-oz can sauerkraut
          • 12 oz. tomato juice or V8
              • Directions:
          • You'll need a large pot or a Dutch oven.
          • Saute onion and garlic in oil until onion is translucent. Add cabbage, meat, and sauerkraut.
          • Add tomato juice, then three more 12-ounce measures of water.
          • Heat to boiling, then lower to a simmer. Cover pot and check on it occasionally to make sure you don't need to top up with water (as cabbage cooks down, this won't be a problem). Once cabbage has cooked down, stir every half hour or so.
              • Notes:
          • Sour cream on top is divine, and it goes well with pierogi. Left-overs are better the next day because the flavors continue to marinade.
