    This is a favorite in our house! We make it often. So much easier than wrapping the meat in the cabbage leaves! Thanks for sharing! - 7/24/10

    WOW WOW WOW.... even my horribly picky 4 year old ate this! I cooked it in the slow cooker and it was great to just put everything in the crock pot and eat 6 hrs later! Just as good as the stuffed variety! - 5/6/10

    Delicious! I modified it a bit, using ground turkey breast (99% fat free), Low-Sodium V8 (10 oz) instead of tomato soup, and Hunt's No-Salt Added tomatoes. That gets it to about 175 calories and under 100 sodium per serving! - 10/23/12

    This was pretty good, I really am not a fan of cooked cabbage, but figured Id give it a try, I doubled the recipe for the whole family. Not only did I like it, the hubby and kids enjoyed it as well. - 9/5/12

    i am not sure where i went wrong, but this makes to my eyes many more than 8 servings. but it was delicious, and easy to make. i will try it in the crock pot next time if i think far enough ahead. i subbed instant brown rice also as i read of undercooking problems with long grain white. - 10/9/11

    This was delicious!! I cut the recipe in half cooked it on low heat for about an hour, the rice absolutely needed the extra time. Even cutting the recipe in half it served 6. My husband and I shared this with our neigbors, they loved it too :) - 5/10/10

  • I already have a recipe for something similar, but we call it "Lazy Cabbage Rolls." This was just as good, and much healthier. :) I will definitely make it again, but will pre-cook the rice. - 11/20/12

  • This was delicious! I had cooked brown rice on hand, so I left the rice and water out of the mix. When everything else was done I served it on top of the rice. This recipe is a keeper at our house. - 9/22/12

  • One problem -- I can't stop eating this!! Made it for dinner last night, then had a cup for breakfast and just had 2 cups for lunch! Hubby loved it but kids wouldn't touch it. My subs were 20 oz ground turkey and 1 c minute brown rice. Made 12 cups. 1c = 142 cals & 12g protein. Thank you, thank you! - 6/1/12
