Tomato, Sausage, Bean, Cabbage, Caramelized Garlic & Onion Stew

This turned out amazing. The sausage and chili flakes are essential.

1 large can sliced stewed tomatoes

2 tbsp dry red chili flakes

6 cloves fried, browned garlic

2 onions, caramelized

1/2 tsp pepper

2 links hot italian sausage, chunked

1/3 head of green cabbage

8 strings fresh thyme (dried thyme would work too, 1-1.5 tbsp)

3/4 pound stewing beef

1 cup white beans

bon appetit
