Ingredients

1/2 head green cabbage
1/2 sliced onion
8 ounce sausage
oil for cooking

Alfredo Sauce

5 ounce parmesan cheese
2 ounce cream cheese
1/2 cup heavy cream
1 tablespoon butter
2 tablespoon minced garlic
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1/8 teaspoon xanthan gum (recommend, see notes)
1/2 cup freshly chopped parsley

Instructions

Alfredo sauce

In a pot on medium high heat add in melted butter. Once butter has melted add in minced garlic. Cook garlic until it browns
Once garlic has browned lower the heat to medium low and add in parmesan cheese and cream cheese. Allow these to slowly melt as you continue to stir.
When cheeses have melted together it will look like a melted blob of cheese. Now, slowly add in heavy cream while stirring the cheese. Heavy cream should mix in well until the blob turns into a actual sauce.
In a small bowl or plate, add the salt, pepper and xanthan gum together and make sure to mix them around. Now with a whisk in one hand, add the seasoning mix all at once and quickly whisk it in. You want to mix in the xanthan gum before it can clump together.
Lastly, add in chopped parsley. Set to the side until your sausage and cabbage is finish. Keep low heat to it and continue to stir so the bottom doesn't brown and it doesn't get too cold.

Sausage and cabbage alfredo

Slice up the sausage, cabbage and your onion.
In a pot on medium high heat, add in about 1 TB of oil for cooking. Toss in the chopped sausage first.
When the sausage has seared add in the sliced onion then salt and pepper the onion. Continue cooking until the onion starts to brown.
Once onion is cooked lower the heat to medium and add in chopped cabbage. Continue to stir while cooking because the onions and sausage will try to settle to the bottom.
After you add the cabbage add a little more oil in. About 2 TB. Cook until cabbage has withered and is a soft texture. Once the cabbage is done remove from heat, salt and pepper to taste.
Take most of the Alfredo sauce and mix it throughout the sausage and cabbage. When serving drizzle some sauce over the top, garnish with parsley and shredded parmesan. Enjoy.

Notes

xanthan gum does not add any flavor to the dish. But, if you have leftovers when you go to reheat the sauce it won't separate when you use xanthan gum. You can skip it but if you reheat it the sauce will separate.
