We have a lot of cabbage right now (about 40 heads) so I'm always looking for new ways to use it. I tried this recipe last night ... it was delicious!! Thought I would share with you all....

CABBAGE CASSEROLE

1 head cabbage
1 1/2 lb ground pork or ground beef (or ground turkey?)
1 med. onion, chopped
1 dash garlic powder
1 dash oregano
1 dash basil
1/4 C. rice
32 oz. spaghetti sauce
1 lb. mozzarella cheese, shredded

Cut up cabbage and boil 3 minutes (I cut the cabbage into quarters) and drain . Cook the rice. Brown the meat with the onions and drain. Add spices, spaghetti sauce and cooked rice to the browned meat. Layer the cabbage leaves, meat mixture and cheese like you would lasagna, top with more cheese. Cover and bake for 1 hour at 350 degrees.

Yummy! I made cabbage rolls a couple of weeks ago. Kind of like these: http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/t...ipe/index.html My family always called them galumpkis.

The layered method sounds easier! And it has cheese! You can't go wrong with cheese. Thanks for the recipe!

Ohhhh, that sounds good! I love cabbage. I'll give this a try.

I make cabbage rolls.Can't figure out what the 1&1/4th C of olive oil is used for?

Yeah, that does seem odd ... maybe a mis-print?

Thankyou... I usually make the cabbage rolls, but this sounds a little easier to me. Thank's for sharing this with us. I book marked it fo later use.

Yummy. I love cooked cabbage.

I love cabbage rolls and make my casserole in the microwave in the summer. or use crockpot to make the rolls. If using microwave. I precook the meats,onion,mushrooms,and bell pepprs,and garlic.. mix it with instant rice and sauce. put in baking dish,sprinkle with cheddar cheese and top with pre boiled chopped cabbage. pour a little more sauce on top and of course more cheddar. cook covered with vent holes on 1/2 power for about 25 min. No exact measuremnts just however you like. I make a pasta sauce of my own. Mary

I make the freezer slaw, sure wish I had about 5-6 heads!

Thanks! I have a bunch of cabbage right now too and will give it a try! Sounds delicious!

if you like this try cabbage soup, lovely warming for winter and cheap too.

I made the Cabbage Casserole last night and it was good - there are a couple changes I would do the next time tho. I BOUGHT the cabbage which did not have ANY flavor, as did the onions and hamburger (what is happening to our tasteless food?)Anyway, I cut the cabbage in half, and halved the entire recipe except the sauce - so it was too "saucey" I WILL make it again when we can get "home grown" veggies! Thanks for sharing!

Oil is to keep it from sticking I have a similar recipe that uses bacon and it was good.

Sounds yummy !! I have a silly question......... my girlfriend just gave me a head of purple cabbage from her garden. I was planning on using it in this recipe, do you think that's ok???

it will turn the food a murky yucky color--but will taste fine

Okay......... thank you, I will use the purple cabbage for a salad instead, and use nice green cabbage for your casserole. Thanks again for the recipe. I'm anxious to try it..... a nice FALL dish. :thumbup:

Yum, we eat lots of cabbage in the Winter, its so cheap!

Both recips sound so good. The only thing I like about this time of year is the good foods we start making.

May I ask how you make freezer slaw? I have never heard of that before..

Sounds yummy
