    I am taking part of a weekly link up where there is a featured ingredient each week. I love this because it gives me another idea for a recipe to share with you. This week the featured ingredient is cabbage. I do not cook much with cabbage because only my one son and I like it. So I broke out the recipe that I love to make when I have cabbage on hand.

    This recipe is featured in Fix It and Forget It for Entertaining for slow cookers. I have altered it a little to suit the way we like it. The original recipe called for caraway seeds and I can never find them when I am looking for them. I also make ham stock from the ham bones, so while the recipe calls for beef stock I use ham stock. I also add a little extra water.

    Ham and Cabbage Stew From The Spring Mount 6 Pack

    Ham and Cabbage Stew

    1/2 lb cooked ham, cubed

    1/2 cup diced onions

    1 garlic clove, minced

    4 cups of shredded cabbage. I like mine in bigger pieces, so I cut mine instead of shredding it with a grater.

    2 sliced carrots

    salt and pepper

    2/3 cups of ham stock

    1 cup of water

    1 Tablespoon of cornstarch dissolved in 2 Tablespoons of water

    Optional: I do not use these but it is called for in the original recipe if you are interested: 1 4oz can of mushrooms and 1/4tsp caraway seeds

    Add all of the ingredients into the slow cooker except the cornstarch and water mixture. Cook for 4-6 hours on low. About an hour before the stew is done, add in the cornstarch mixture to thicken it slightly.

      I am not a fan of mushrooms so happy to see that you left those out! Looks like a great meal for winter!

      I love adding cabbage to stew – I add it to my beef stew often. I will have to try making a ham and cabbage stew now!
