Here is a fast version of a classic: Stuffed Cabbage. This recipe is hassle free and I would say, very healthy. My children even ate it and they hate cabbage. This is barely a recipes, you can fudge on it if you want, or even add chicken instead, if that would float your boat. I bet you could make it in a crockpot. So have a great weekend and do yourself a favor and make this Super Simple Simon Supper.
Layered Stuffed Cabbage Bake
10 oz. bag shredded cabbage, like for coleslaw
1 pound lean ground beef, raw
3/4 cup jasmine rice, uncooked
2 T. dried minced onion
seasoning of choice- I used smoked paprika, garlic salt, and black pepper
28 oz. jar favorite pasta sauce- I used Trader Joe's Arrabbiata Sauce- spicy!
1/2 cup water
Extra sauce and Parmesan cheese when serving- optional
In a greased 9x13 inch baking dish layer 1/2 bag cabbage, rice, ground beef broken in bits, then generously season with your favorite seasonings being sure to get at least 1/2 tsp salt in there- in my case the garlic salt. Top with remaining cabbage and pour sauce and water evenly over all. Cover and seal then bake at 350 degrees for 90 minutes. Serve with extra sauce and Parmesan cheese. Serves 6-8.
Note- I enjoyed the texture of the cabbage in this dish. Although it did cook through, it kept its texture- I did not want soggy cabbage- which was perfect with the tender, flavorful rice.

I must admit that I too didn't like cabbage as a boy but I do love it now.
You're a crafty mom to be able to get your children to eat cabbage!
Love this recipe! I love stuffed cabbage but it is too time consuming to make. This is perfect!
I love when recipes aren't really recipes, but guides. You come up with some of the best!
Almost went overboard on cabbage this winter. But forgot that cabbage goes in posole and fish tacos and a bunch of other spring / summer dishes, so guess I need to pick up two more heads today!
Call it cabbage lasagna - that's what it looks like to me. That'd be a good way to get the kids to eat it too.
genius! i am so tired of stuffing cabbage--i must try it this deconstructed way!
It been forever since I had stuffed cabbage. A friend of the family makes the best stuffed cabbage with pork and beef.
I should try this in the crockpot, simple enough!
I made stuffed cabbage rolls a while back and it was too much fuss. This is a great way to have the wonderful taste of stuffed cabbage without all the work!
this floats my boat and rocks my canoe just the way it is. delicious work, robin sue!
I adore food like this.
Yum! One of my favs - wish I could get The Cajun to eat it! Have a great weekend!!
This is great! I'm going to make this one. I've been making myself stuffed cabbage with lean ground beef and brown rice for healthy lunches (DH does NOT like cabbage!) and you are right, this will be so much easier. Yum!
Easy peasy is right. I have such a hard time of not having a few torn "rolls" when I make this the old school way. What a great idea, thanks.
Mmmmm ,that looks wonderful. Yum!
Cheers!

I'm not big on cabbage, but this recipe looks really good.
I might actually get my family to eat this!! I just won't tell them there's cabbage in it!
Hope you had a great weekend!
That looks mouth-watering! Thank you so much for sharing.
This looks so good - I am definitely going to be trying this one out!
