Recipe Exchange: Ca-Sau-Toes

Preparing a meal for your family can be pretty tough some days. To make this task a little easier, we offer you "Ca-Sau-Toes," which was submitted to us by Joe Jordan, Jr., a foster parent from Durham County, North Carolina. Joe advises, "this little meal can be a big help if you're on a tight budget--it can be prepared for under five dollars." And, he confides, kids love it!

Ca-Sau-Toes Shred and wash a medium cabbage (red or green) Slice linked sausage and place in skillet (I use about 1 lb. of Hillshire Farms) Peel & quarter three white potatoes Dice 1/2 medium onion and 1/2 green pepper; add these to the sausages and potatoes Add 2 tablespoons of Crisco Cover and simmer 5 minutes over low heat Add the cabbage and season to taste (I use a little "Mrs. Dash") Continue heating until cabbage is tender This will serve at least two adults and six children: trust me!
