I'm always on the lookout for new crockpot meals that are healthy, frugal and avoid foods to which my son is allergic. This one is pretty good. I tripled the meat because I buy it in 3 lb trays and because if I'm going to get my kids to eat cooked cabbage, the meat to cabbage ratio better be high. It wasn't mushy at all, perhaps because of the extra meat. It was easy to make and didn't require any precooking of the ingredients, a huge plus.Reply

Well, I really thought I'd like this better than I did. However, it was just ok. I think that it would have been better if the cabbage was not so shredded and if there was less sauce. The sauce just seemed to overwhelm everything else and it was kind of all mush. Despite the fact that I cooked it on low for 6 hours, the rice was still a bit hard.Reply
