Sweet-sour Cabbage with Sausage Ingredients

1 pound Smoked sausage - pork, beef, or turkey2 tablespoons Balsamic Vinegar - to taste
1 clove Garlic - fine diced or crushed1 tablespoon Cider Vinegar - to taste
4 cups Cabbage - coarse shredded (red, green, or mixed)1/8 teaspoon Kosher salt - to taste
1 tablespoon Splenda - to taste1/2 teaspoon Black pepper - coarse ground

Instructions for Sweet-sour Cabbage with Sausage

Slice sausage into "coins" no more than 1/2 inch thick. In an oil-sprayed pan, over medium-high heat brown the sausage coins until they are crisp on both sides. Drain on paper towels and set aside.

Drain off grease from pan reserving about a tablespoon. Saute the garlic for a minute or so until it becomes fragrant and is very lightly browned. Add the cabbage and saute it for a couple of minutes, stirring occasionally. You want it hot throughout but not completely limp.

Add the Splenda, balsamic and cider vinegars, and cook to another two minutes or so. The liquids should partially boil off and allow the sauce to thicken.

Season with salt and pepper then return the sausage to the top of the pan to re-heat.

Serve this with buttered dark rye or other hardy whole-grain bread.

This was so good I made it a second evening in a row. Instead of bread I served it with avocado slices for a diabetic-friendly feast. [I posted this recipe.]
