Cabbage Rolls!!

Last night I made Cabbage Rolls for dinner in our crock-pot!!

I began by taking apart the head of cabbage.  My recipe called for 12 cabbage leaves, but I only ended up with about 8 or 9 that were salvageable.  I then boiled the acceptable cabbage leaves for 2 minutes and then drained them.


I then prepped my stuffing mixture.  I put 1 cup of cooked rice, about a pound of ground turkey, a small diced onion and an egg into a bowl and mixed it until the ingredients were combined.

I then put a scoop of the stuffing mixture into each cabbage leaf and placed them into the crock-pot.


I then prepared the sauce by combining tomato sauce, Worchestershire sauce, brown sugar and lemon juice.  I poured the sauce over the top of the cabbage rolls.

I then let them cook for 8 hours.



I served the cabbage rolls on top of the pumpkin spice fettuccini leftover from last week.

Here is my finished plate:



So, overall I would say that the tally is:

Cabbage Rolls- A definite HIT!!

My husband and I both really enjoyed the cabbage rolls.  He had thirds and also packed them for his lunch today.  I preferred the cabbage and the sauce to the stuffing mixture, but I'm not a big meat fan.
