I cut the recipe in half for my 3 qt.
I made this about a month ago and it is WONDERFUL! I used turkey kielbasa and doubled the meat. I used a huge head of cabbage. I made mine in an 8 quart instant pot. Making it again today with beef kielbasa.
Thank you, Lisa. Jill
Easy and quick prep, Delicious Recipe. Definitely a keeper!!
Thank you, Diane. Jill
This was a simple and delicious recipe!
I used Andouille sausage and butter. We stopped using garlic salt years ago so we could control the sodium, so I used granulated garlic and increased it to 1 teaspoon, other that I made it as written.
Next time I will try a Kielbasa or smoked sausage since I don’t handle spice well and the andouille was a bit spicy for me.
Thanks, Michelle. Jill
Going to try out this recipe … looks really good! … but am curious to know what size instant pot you need for making this.
Be well & mighty.

For such a simple recipe, such depth of flavor! Love the turmeric. And even better the next day, if lucky enough to have left overs. Love this recipe in the cold months…such comfort food. ?
Thank you, Jenn. Jill
Love this recipe for my instant pot! The only thing I changed was that I added the entire onion instead of half but it was still super tasty. I would have never thought to put turmeric in, we usually season ours with celery salt, onion, and garlic. Hubby and I decided that we need to make a double batch next time because we could have eaten the entire pot in one sitting!
This was amazing!! I had only eaten cabbage and sausage one other time in my life before cooking your recipe last week and this was my first time to cook it. It was amazing!! My husband and I both really enjoyed it. My daughter finally tasted it and she even said it was good, (she is VERY picky!) We are having it again this week. It will be a regular in our house from now on!
Thanks so much for sharing!!
Hi Kim. Thank you so much. I am thrilled that this recipe made such a nice impact on your family. Jill
I am new to instapot….what size cooker do I need? Mine is only a 3 quart…will that be too small.
I cut the recipe in half for my 3 qt.
This dish is really simple ingredients that taste really good together. Perfect for a winter night supper. Delish!
Thank you, CMS. Jill
I thought this was a very good quick meal. If I could eat rice (not on the Paleo) I would serve it over rice and maybe add some carrots. Thanks for the recipe!
New to instant pot do I put the sausage back in after I drain it are when do I put the sausage in
This was so delicious! I simmered it for about 10 minutes on low after following your instructions. I have 2 teenage boys and they loved it too! My husband said, “definitely a keeper!” , just like all the IP recipes I’ve tried of yours. Thanks, Jill! I love your recipes!
Thank you, Kathleen. I am glad you enjoyed this recipe. Jill
