Both DH and I liked this very much. Make sure to add enough salt to handle both the rice and the cabbage. It was an easy dish to make and was a nice change. Plus I could do all sorts of fun things with the leftovers.

What a great flavor combination! This is an excellent recipe. I didn't think I would ever actually love cabbage (always just liked it) until this recipe. The combination is just perfect. Thank you! Made for ZWT9 by Soup-A-Stars

Cooked this for dinner tonight. I was a bit skeptical, but I had all of the ingredients on hand. I added leftover rotisserie chicken and sriracha. YUM! Will be great for lunch tomorrow.
