This slow cooker 3-ingredient cabbage and potatoes is the kind of dish my grandmother leaned on when times were lean but bellies still needed filling. Out on the farm, she could count on a good head of cabbage from the garden, a sack of potatoes in the cellar, and a little butter from the cream she’d skimmed herself. She’d tuck everything into a pot early in the day and let it quietly turn into something tender, brothy, and comforting by suppertime. This is that same idea, just eased into a slow cooker: humble ingredients, hardly any work, and a warm, hearty plate that feels like a soft memory of simpler days.Serve these tender cabbage wedges and buttery potatoes in a shallow bowl so they can catch some of the savory juices from the bottom of the slow cooker. A slice of crusty bread or a warm biscuit is perfect for soaking up every last bit of that broth. If you like a little protein alongside, this goes nicely with simple fried eggs, a few slices of ham, or leftover roast chicken. A spoonful of tangy applesauce or some pickles on the side adds a bright note against the soft, mellow cabbage and potatoes.
