These cabbage rolls are a great way to use up leftover beef. They're also a great freezer meal.

These cabbage rolls were a bit too bland for my taste. I think I'll add more spices next time.

I love this recipe! The cabbage rolls are always so tender and flavorful. I usually add a little extra garlic and onion to the filling, and I always serve them with a side of sour cream.
