Grandma's German Cabbage Rolls
- Ready In:
- 3hrs
- Ingredients:
- 7
- Serves:
-
8-10
ingredients
- 1 large head of cabbage
-
For filling
- 1 1⁄2 lbs ground beef
- 1⁄2 cup white rice, cooked. i use converted (measured prior to cooking)
- 1 egg
- 1⁄3 cup finely minced onion
- salt and pepper
- 2 (10 ounce) cans tomato soup
directions
- Core the cabbage and put in a large microwave-proof bowl. Add 1/3 cup water and cover with plastic wrap. Microwave on high for 20 minutes, remove soft leaves and continue microwaving until all the usable leaves are soft. Stack the leaves as you remove them and cover.
- Mix the filling ingredients in a separate bowl and get your large casserole dish out. (You may need another small casserole dish).
- Place filling near the base of each cabbage leaf and roll up, placing seam side down in the casserole. Crowd the rolls as much as possible. Continue until you are out of filling.
- Spoon the tomato soup over the rolls evenly.
- Bake at 300-325 degrees for at least 2 hours, covering when they start to brown.
- I've guessed at the serving sizes since Grandma didn't tell me! And cabbage rolls do take a long time but are worth it all.

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY
I was born in a small Canadian prairie town but was raised in the city. Country living appeals to me more and more and now I think I have the best of both worlds, living just outside the city but within a 30 minute drive from downtown.
I enjoy the wildlife I see out my kitchen window and my vegetable and flower gardens in the summer. And I love cooking with the produce from my garden, although there always seems to be too much at once. Learning to can became a necessity with all those beautiful vegetables and I now really enjoy making pickles, relish, salsa, jams and whatever else strikes my fancy.
I have 2 teenage sons and cooking to suit everyone's taste is always a challenge. Recipezaar has certainly made life easier in that regard, with so many great recipes to choose from.
