Red Potato Cabbage Casserole

Red Potato Cabbage Recipe

This red potato cabbage recipe is a great wholesome recipe. It does take a little work as it is a combination casserole, great mashed potatoes and sautéed cabbage. This recipe makes the most amazing left overs too so it is totally worth the effort. Check out our other potato salad recipe.

I found it easier to make this like two separate dishes while preparing it. I followed the original recipe I found on Food.com but the directions were a bit overwhelming to me and I did change a few things because I didn’t have them on hand. This is a great change up to plain ole mashed potatoes for the holiday dinners too!
