Slow cooker cabbage rolls are a hearty, comforting dish made with tender cabbage leaves stuffed with a flavorful ground beef and rice mixture, cooked in a rich tomato sauce.

  • Total Time: 6 hours 30 minutes
  • Yield: 12 rolls 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 head of cabbage
  • 21 oz. tomato soup (two 10.5 oz. cans)
  • 10 oz. Rotel tomatoes
  • 15 oz. tomato sauce
  • ¾ cup Minute brand rice
  • ½ cup green bell pepper, chopped
  • ½ cup breadcrumbs
  • 1 Tbsp. Worcestershire sauce
  • 2 shallots, finely diced
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 oz. onion soup mix
  • 11/2 lb ground beef, lean
  • grated parmesan
  • salt and pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. Cut the stem of the cabbage out. Secure the cabbage well to avoid cutting yourself.
  2. Put the head of cabbage into a pot of boiling salted water. Boil for 5 minutes, rotating halfway. Remove and drain. The leaves will easily pull away.
  3. Use a pairing knife to cut or shave the thick stem, making the leaves pliable.
  4. In a large bowl, mix tomato sauce, rice, green bell pepper, shallots, Worcestershire sauce, onion mix, seasonings, breadcrumbs, and egg. Thoroughly mix in the meat.
  5. Pour ½ can of soup into the slow cooker and spread it around.
  6. Place ⅓ cup of the mixture in the center of a cabbage leaf. Fold in all sides like a burrito to enclose the filling. Place seam-down in the slow cooker.
  7. After the first layer of 6 rolls, pour half of the Rotel and remaining tomato soup from the open can over them.
  8. Make the next 6 rolls, placing them on top. Spread the remaining Rotel and last can of tomato soup over them.
  9. Cover and cook on low for 6-7 hours. A meat thermometer should read 160°F or higher.
  10. Sprinkle with parmesan cheese to serve.

Notes

  • Use lean ground beef for less grease.
  • Rotate the cabbage while boiling to soften leaves evenly.
  • Check the internal temperature to ensure doneness.
