I loved adding the rice to it and it had plenty of liquid to cook it perfectly.

I'm not sure if I was the one who originally posted it, but it's a recipe we love around here. One of my friends posted it on FB a while back and i've made it at least 4 or 5 times since then. It's so much easier than prepping the cabbage rolls and my husband just schmushes them all up in his plate anyway, so why bother?

You know I thought it was on here at one time, but could not find it. Made it and it really was good. I wasn't sure where I'd copied it from, but wanted to post here just in case someone had posted it and I'm thinking it might have been you. Thanks so much for the recipe!!

You're welcome, but I'm only the messenger. I got the recipe from FB.

Rachael Ray has a recipe for stuffed cabbage stoup...something between a stew and a soup. Easy, quick, and very good.

And, I'm not sure WHERE I got this one - I usually put the person's name or nickname, so I don't know how I missed that!

They said? "This is my favorite cabbage casserole - It tastes like cabbage rolls but is much easier"

Cabbage Roll Casserole

1 medium head of cabbage, cored and shredded (or buy bagged coleslaw)

1 lb ground beef

1 cup chopped onion

2 garlic cloves, minced

1 egg, beaten

1/2 cup milk

1 cup cooked rice

For the Sauce:

1 14-oz can stewed tomatoes

8 oz tomato sauce

10 oz can tomato soup

1 tab brown sugar

1/4 tea cayenne pepper (optional)

1 Tbsp Worcestershire sauce

1/2 tea nutmeg

1 bay leaf

salt and pepper to taste

Saute onion and garlic for about one minute. Add meat and cook until the meat is no longer pink. Drain well, put in a bowl, and let cool to room temperature. When meat has cooled add egg, milk and rice.

Saute cabbage in the same pan for a couple of minutes.

In a large bowl mix all of the sauce ingredients together. Place some of this mixture in the bottom of a 10x13 casserole dish (or cake pan).

Layer half the cabbage on top of the sauce. Layer all the meat on top of the cabbage. Top with the remaining cabbage and then finish by pouring all the remaining sauce on top.

Bake at 350 degrees for 30 min or until the cabbage is cooked. Remove the bay leaf.

Top with mozzarella cheese and return to the oven until melted (optional) or garnish with a dollop of sour cream.

Almost Cabbage Roll Casserole ( by autumnleaf 9/27/02) reposted by tiny2 7/7/08

1 lb. lean ground meat
3/4 cup uncooked long grain rice
1 large chopped onion
2 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. pepper
28oz. can tomato sauce (unsalted) or 3- 8oz. cans + 1/2 can water
1/4 cup cider vinegar
1/4 cup brown sugar
2 tsp. dry mustard
8 cups coarsely chopped cabbage (about 1 medium head)

In large bowl, mix beef, rice, onion, garlic, salt & pepper. In
another bowl, stir together tomato sauce, vinegar, brown sugar and
mustard.
Layer 1/3 of the cabbage in bottom of 3qt. casserole.
Arrange 1/2 of the meat mixture on top. Cover with 1/3 of the
cabbage. Top with remaining beef mixture & remaining cabbage.
Pour tomato sauce mixture over top, but do not stir.
Casserole will be full. Cover. Place on cookie sheets to catch
any spills.
Bake 325 for 2 hrs. without stirring. Do not uncover so the steam
will cook the rice & meat.
Turn off heat and let sit in over for 15-30 min or until all liquid
is absorbed.

Because this recipe uses raw meat, I would cook it before freezing.

You know I have been meaning to make a cabbage roll dish because a friend says they are her DH's favorite. I still haven't gotten around to it, but your recipe is so easy that I have to give it a try.

My Grandmother made the most delicious stuffed cabbage. I miss it but this sounds so good and easy, can I make it in the crock pot so it cooks all day?

I make this recipe often and it is delicious and always a big hit at our house. I especially like that it uses long grain rice and not instant rice in the recipe. Thanks Doglover for posting this recipe.
