Stewed Cabbage with Turkey - FAQ About Ingredients, Baking Time and Storage

Yes, chicken works well as a substitute for turkey. Use boneless, skinless chicken thighs or breasts, adjusting cooking time as needed since chicken may cook slightly faster.
Replace the turkey with mushrooms, lentils, or tofu for a vegetarian version. Use vegetable broth instead of water for added flavor, and ensure spices are adjusted to taste.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days. Reheat gently on the stove or in the microwave, adding a splash of water if needed.
Yes, this dish freezes well. Allow it to cool completely, then store in freezer-safe containers for up to 3 months. Thaw overnight in the fridge before reheating.
Serve with crusty bread, mashed potatoes, or a light salad. A dollop of sour cream or fresh herbs like parsley can add a nice finishing touch.
Yes, red cabbage can be used, but it may alter the color and slightly change the flavor. It tends to be a bit sweeter and may require a longer cooking time.
This dish is naturally low-carb if served as-is. For even fewer carbs, reduce or omit the carrots and ensure your tomato paste is sugar-free.
You can substitute tomato paste with crushed tomatoes, tomato sauce (reduced slightly), or even ketchup in a pinch, though the flavor will vary slightly.
