Time 1h10m

Number Of Ingredients 14

4 cups cooked white rice (from 1 1/2 cups uncooked rice, cooled to room temp)
1/2 medium cabbage (sliced into 1/4" wide strips (7 cups sliced))
1 pound ground pork
1 pound ground turkey
1 large onion (divided (1/2 grated and 1/2 finely diced))
2 large eggs
Original Mrs. Dash (or any salt-free all-purpose seasoning)
Salt and black pepper
2 Tbsp finely chopped parsley or dill
1 Tbsp Olive oil
3 Tbsp unsalted butter
1 large carrot (julienned or grated)
2 cups store-bought marinara or homemade
3 cups hot water

Steps:

  • Oil a 9x13 casserole dish, preheat oven to 425˚F.
  • Slice cabbage into 1/4" thin slices. Place in a heat proof bowl, cover with boiling water and let sit 10 min to soften. Drain and squeeze out excess water with your hands.
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine ground turkey, ground pork, drained cabbage and 4 cups cooked rice. Grate 1/2 large onion into meat mixture. Add 2 eggs, 1 tsp Mrs Dash, 1/2 tsp black pepper, 2 tsp salt, and 2 Tbsp finely chopped parsley. Mix well. Form into potato-shaped patties with your hands (each should be about 1/2 cup of the meat mixture). Arrange in oiled casserole.
  • For the sauce, finely dice remaining 1/2 large onion. Heat a large pot over medium/high heat and add 1 Tbsp oil and 3 Tbsp butter. Add diced onion and sauté 5 minutes, stirring occassionally or until softened. Add julienned carrot and cook another 3 minutes or until softened. Add 2 cups marinara and 3 cups hot water and bring to a boil. Add 1/4 tsp salt and 1/4 tsp Mrs Dash, or season to taste.
  • Pour sauce over patties until they are nearly covered. Cover with foil and bake on medium rack at 425˚F for 40 min. To serve, plate the lazy stuffed cabbage and spoon the extra juice over the top. Serve with sour cream (my favorite) or plain Greek yogurt.

UNSTUFFED CABBAGE ROLL



Unstuffed Cabbage Roll image

This is a quick and easy main dish. My kids don't even like cabbage, but they love this. I usually try to serve it with green beans, new potatoes, corn, and a pan of corn bread. They eat over half the pan every time. Also, the longer it stands the better it tastes.
