Lithuanian Cabbage And Curry Recipes

A family favorite from Lithuanian beach.

Cabbage is a good source of Vitamins A & c, and fiber. It helps to prevent cancer and is low in calories. Cabbage tastes best and is most nutritious when eaten raw or cooked for a short period of time in a small amount of water.

This recipe is from the chicken dinner house in my hometown of Barberton, Ohio. They are famous for what they call "Barberton Chicken" which came from the "old country". This is I believe a slovak / hungarian / chek recipe. It is not low in anything!! I do substitute splenda or stevia from time to time

VERY high protien!!1/2 traditional rolled, 1/2 layered it's easy, and you never even know it's got tofu in it :0)

Quick and easy chicken curry.

My mother used to make these cabbage rolls when I was a little girl. For a better-for-you version substitute parboiled brown rice for the white rice and extra-lean ground beef.

This is the recipe I use every day in my house; my mom also loves to make this recipe back home.

Delicious and filling

Slim-fried Cabbage with garlic, onion, & red pepper flakes

Cabbage stuffed with ground beef, cooked in a crock pot.

Yummy, easy way to cook cabbage.

This is a filing easy to fix - low fat, low carb, and low calorie recipe

This uses light mayonnaise and horseradish for a little extra zing. I'm guessing on the serving size, but I think it's about half a cup.

Chicken and a savory sauce wrapped up.

Polish Stuffed Cabbage Leaves

Filling and not too high in Calories!

A quick recipe my mother used to make

This is even quicker with pre-cooked rice

This was served every year at my house on New Years Day. It's that special treat I look forward to every year. It has been passed through our family starting with my Great grandmother and each person adds a little something to it. My addition was the garlic.

For the cabbage lover this recipe really gets it!

So much easier than the stuffed version.

If you love cabbage, you are going to freak out about how good this is. Now, if you are on the fence about cabbage, you need to try this because this might be the recipe that converts you to a cabbage lover.

This hearty entrée uses half ground turkey and half lean ground beef and no added salt for a lower fat and salt tasty treat.

I like these because they are a complete meal-in-one. Meat, vegetable and a little starch all wrapped up in each bundle.

This recipe makes up quicker than most when using a pressure cooker but it can be baked in the oven or in a Dutch oven on top of the stove.

There is some brown rice in it but the percentage of carbs is low and the protein is high. Ground turkey could be substituted for one or both of the meats but the nutrition information would need to be changed.

There are many different kinds of stuffed cabbage recipes originating from many countries. This is more like the Polish-type (pronounced go-wum-ki) and is simpler than others. If your lifestyle is like mine, simple is better!

NOTE: The high salt content is due to the pickling process. Most of the salt is rinsed off!
Kimchi is a traditional Korean side dish made from a variety of vegetables, which are salted and then mixed with hot pepper flakes, onion, garlic and spices.

This is a great way to use leftover brown rice; it makes a satisfying and delicious meal.
