Keto Sausage Cabbage Alfredo Recipe
This keto-friendly Sausage Cabbage Alfredo is a rich and creamy dish packed with smoked sausage, tender cabbage, and a luscious cheese sauce. With minimal carbs and a high-fat content, it’s perfect for a low-carb lifestyle while delivering bold, comforting flavors.
Ingredients
- 1 medium head of cabbage chopped
- 1.5 lbs smoked sausage sliced
- 1.5 cups heavy cream
- 6 oz cream cheese softened
- 3/4 cup butter
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 tbsp minced garlic
- 1 tsp onion powder
- Salt & pepper to taste
Instructions
- Prepare the base: In a baking dish, combine the cabbage, heavy cream, cream cheese, butter, garlic, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Stir well to evenly distribute the ingredients.
- Initial baking: Cover the dish and bake at 400°F for 30 minutes, allowing the cabbage to soften and the flavors to meld.
- Cook the sausage: While the cabbage bakes, brown the sliced smoked sausage in a skillet over medium heat, then set aside.
- Final bake: Remove the dish from the oven, stir in the browned sausage, and sprinkle Parmesan cheese over the top. Return to the oven for another 5-10 minutes, uncovered, until the cheese melts and forms a light crust.
- Cool and serve: Take the dish out, let it cool slightly, and enjoy this creamy, cheesy keto casserole!
Notes
- This recipe works best when baked in a cast iron skillet for even heat distribution.
- For added texture, sprinkle crushed pork rinds on top before the final bake.
- Try swapping smoked sausage for grilled chicken or bacon for variation.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
