In this Cabbage & Noodles recipe, simple pantry ingredients create a comforting dish in just minutes. Tender sweet cabbage, fluffy egg noodles and deliciously browned sausage are tossed with butter, salt & pepper. A perfectly comforting meal that your whole family will love!
When I was a kid, I loved veggies and now that I’m older, I love them even more. Right near the top of my list is cabbage!
Not only does it taste great either raw or cooked, it’s so good for you! Typically we use it in cabbage rolls or cabbage roll soup but of course it’s great in a nice crunchy coleslaw too!
Cabbage and Noodles (aka Haluskie) is an old Polish dish and it’s one of my favorites from my Grandmother! Different areas have slightly different versions, Slovak Halusky is more of a potato dumpling while other areas enjoy it as cabbage and noodles.
Regardless of what you call this dish, it’s the perfect way to enjoy the sweet flavors of cabbage and a great way to get a meal on the table on a busy weeknight!
Don’t let the simplicity of this recipe deter you from giving it a try, ingredients don’t have to be fancy to taste amazing!
When seasoning this dish, be generous with the salt & pepper, it makes this extra good! I typically use egg noodles in this dish, I love the light fluffy texture and you can use any type of sausage. If you don’t like sausage, feel free to crisp up some bacon (and sub in some of the bacon grease in place of the butter) or skip the meat altogether.

We all loved this recipe. Will be making again.
I made this for the 2nd time. I posted it to facebook here… I twisted things up a little but stuck pretty close to the original. Added in some flavors with some seasoning and using a bag of frozen peas with garlic sauce and mushrooms.
Thanks for the recipe!!
Made the cabbage and noodles with polish sausage. This was wonderful. Hubby had 3 helpings which is a compliment! So good I’m making it again this week!
Made it for me, hubby and his brother almost ate the skillet
Love this recipe. We prepared it on 1/9/2018–absolutely delicious!! I boiled the noodles in chicken broth-very flavorful.
I just boil the noodles and the cabbage together and fry bacon and onions in a pan with garlic and then dump it into the noodles with the bacon drippings Maza south and pepper and Parmesan cheese
IT WAS A HIT! It was SO yummy! My hubby had 2 servings and said he over stuffed himself, because it was so good. My adult son finished what was left.
I am so glad that your family enjoyed this recipe!
I made this for dinner and replaced peas for corn since I had no peas. Loved it!
I am so glad that you were able to make this recipe work with what you had on hand!
Just made this tonight-only I used 2 cups of uncooked egg noodles and instead of kielbasa, I used part of a turkey ham loaf (totally processed turkey made to look and sort of taste like ham-not what I usually keep in the house but I was looking to use it up) I found I needed to double the butter and I always add garlic to recipes (we love garlic and in the winter I like to go heavy on onions and garlic for their health benefits) I appreciated that you made a big deal of adding salt and pepper…it really made a difference. The family loved it and I definitely foresee making it again with turkey or beef kielbasa and/or turkey bacon after reading the other comments. Thanks so much for sharing your recipes!
I am so glad you were able to adapt this recipe with what you had on hand! I too love onions and garlic, especially in the winter!
This is terrific. I added 2 strips of bacon and sautéed mushrooms, garlic and onions. I used sesame oil instead of olive oil. Very versatile recipe.
Just made this for dinner and really liked it. I left out the peas, used half an onion and used one package of coleslaw mix to make it easier. I am thinking you could probably cut either the oil or butter in half.
I am so glad you were able to adapt this recipe to make it meet your needs!
Definitely going into my family recipe book. I doubled the kielbasa and noodles; I was generous with the garlic and pepper. Easy for a novice; great dish for a large group.
It was awesome
I am so glad you enjoyed it!
