Comforting Cabbage and Sausage Casserole image

I'm not sure where this recipe came from, but it is so good! I have experimented with various ways of cutting the chopping the cabbage and tried different types of sausage, and they have all been enjoyed by me and my family. The most important thing to remember is to drain the fat and excess liquid as directed, or the casserole will be thin and watered down.
