Cabbage rolls

[RFREE]

O.k. ladies I am not good at writing recipes( never use a recipe) but this is as accurate as I can get.
1& 1/2 Lb ground chuck
3/4 cup minute rice
1 egg
1can tomato sauce(divided)
1/2 an onion chopped
1/2 cup Worcestershire sauce
1 tbs garlic pepper
7 cabbage leaves(boiled in water about 3-5 minutes)drained and cooled.

Mix all ingredients use about 1/4 cup of tomato sauce in this mixture.(reserve the rest) If it is to "soupy" you can crumble up a few crackers to tighten it up a little.
Make (depending on how big you want them) balls out of this and wrap them in the cabbage leaves.(I usually end up with 6 or 7) I put seam sides down and pour remaining tomato sauce (a little in the bottom before you put rolls in the pan and the rest over the rolls. I bake them in a casserole dish covered on 350 degrees x 60 minutes. This is my moms concoction and today would have been her birthday so I just had to make them this afternoon. Hope you enjoy them as much as I do. Oh yea it goes good with corn bread too!!!

Re: Cabbage rolls

Must have made your Mom just beam knowing you made her favorite !

I have another suggestion - layer the ingredients into an 8 x 8 (Use Pam Spray) pan. Easier than rolling each one and makes a delicious casserole! I have done this several times and it is yummy.

Re: Cabbage rolls

This sounds like an excellent dish! The only thing that we would add is Cayenne pepper to taste because we like spicy foods. Thanks for sharing.

Sounds yummy, I would add some spice. I like spicy Ethiopian dishes.

Re: Cabbage rolls

How do you get from a head of cabbage to the boiled leaves? Do you boil the whole head? What do you do with the rest of the cabbage? See, I've never made stuffed cabbage so I need baby step directions.
