Slow cooker cabbage rolls

Slow cooker cabbage rolls are a comforting and delicious dish that’s easy to prepare. Here’s a simple recipe:

Ingredients:

  • – 1 large head of cabbage
  • – 1 lb ground beef or turkey
  • – 1 cup cooked rice
  • – 1 small onion, finely chopped
  • – 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • – 1 can (14.5 oz) diced tomatoes
  • – 1 can (8 oz) tomato sauce
  • – 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • – 1 teaspoon paprika
  • – 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
  • – Salt and pepper to taste
  • – 1 cup beef or vegetable broth

Instructions:

1. Start by preparing the cabbage. Fill a large pot with water and bring it to a boil. Carefully add the whole head of cabbage to the pot and let it boil for about 5 minutes, or until the outer leaves are softened and easy to remove. Remove the cabbage from the pot and carefully peel off the softened leaves. Set aside.

2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef or turkey, cooked rice, chopped onion, minced garlic, diced tomatoes, tomato sauce, Worcestershire sauce, paprika, dried oregano, salt, and pepper. Mix well to combine.

3. Take a cabbage leaf and place a spoonful of the meat and rice mixture in the center. Roll up the cabbage leaf, tucking in the sides as you go, to form a tight roll. Repeat with the remaining cabbage leaves and filling.

4. Place the cabbage rolls seam-side down in the slow cooker. Arrange them in a single layer, stacking if necessary.

5. Pour the beef or vegetable broth over the cabbage rolls in the slow cooker.

6. Cover the slow cooker and cook on low heat for 6-8 hours, or until the cabbage rolls are cooked through and tender.

7. Once the cabbage rolls are cooked, remove them from the slow cooker and serve hot. You can spoon some of the cooking liquid over the cabbage rolls for extra flavor, if desired.

8. Enjoy your delicious slow cooker cabbage rolls with your favorite side dishes!

These slow cooker cabbage rolls are a hearty and satisfying meal that’s perfect for busy weeknights or special occasions. Plus, they make great leftovers!
