Serving Size:
1 cup or 1/6th cabbage

Diet Types:

Preheat oven to 350° F.
Remove core from cabbage and cut out 3 cups of cabbage from the inside to make a cavity for stuffing.
Combine turkey, sausage, onion, bell pepper, Worcestershire sauce and herb seasoning in a bowl. Mix well then stuff into cabbage.
Insert 4 to 5 toothpicks around outside of cabbage to anchor it. Place with stuffed end up into a deep, ovenproof pot.
Pour 1/2-cup water into bottom of pot, cover with a lid and bake 45 minutes or until ground turkey temperature reaches 175° F.
Remove from oven and let rest 10 minutes before cutting into 6 equal servings.

Make coleslaw out of the leftover cabbage that was removed to make the cavity for the turkey stuffing.
Select spicy hot turkey sausage for more flavor.
Sausage is higher in sodium and phosphorus that many other meats. When used in small amounts, it may be included in recipes that meet the goals of a kidney diet.
Divide leftover sausage into 1-1/2-ounce portions and freeze for later use.
