  1. Hi Kittencal, We had this for dinner last night. I loved the flavor of the beer in your recipe. Next time I make this I will cut down on the butter to save some calories. Thanks!
     
  2. We loved this recipe. It made plenty for us to have 2 guests and to have lunch the next day. The cabbage is our favourite part. *yum* I added the carrots as suggested and will add more next time - at least a cup and a half. Also, next time I will either only use 1# of kielbasa or add another head of cabbage and more potatoes. If I do the latter I'll start it on the stove (caramelizing the onions and garlic) and then put it in the oven just because it will take a large roaster to contain the food! This was an easy recipe to follow and the cooking time allowed me to clean up the kitchen before we ate. What a bonus!
     
  3. We loved this recipe, the flavors accentuated each other well. This was very simple to make and the aroma is wonderful!
