Ingredients
12 large cabbage leaves20 oz. pkg. 93% lean ground turkey1 cup cooked brown rice1 cup chopped onion1 clove garlic, minced1 T. tomato paste1 T. soy sauce, reduced sodiumdash nutmegdash cinnamon1 t. saltdash pepper29 oz. can tomato puree2 T. Splendajuice of 1 lemon1 t. saltdash of pepper1 T. soy sauce, reduced sodium
Begin by boiling a very large stockpot of water. Boil the cabbage leaves for about five minutes, or until bright green and pliable. Carefully remove them from the boiling water onto a tray or large plate lined with several thicknesses of paper towels. Allow to cool.
Meanwhile, spray a large, covered casserole dish with nonstick cooking spray.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the turkey, rice, tomato paste, chopped onion, minced garlic, salt, pepper, soy sauce, nutmeg and cinnamon. Mix well to incorporate all ingredients. Divide meat mixture into 4 equal parts. Now grab your cooled cabbage leaves, and divide each quarter portion of meat mixture into thirds while rolling each into a cabbage leaf, making 12 portions in all. To roll, I place the ball of meat mixture onto the thick "veined" part of the cabbage, fold in the sides, and then roll it up.
Place the rolls carefully into your baking dish. Now combine the tomato puree, splenda, lemon juice, salt, pepper, and soy sauce. Pour all over the cabbage rolls. Cover and bake at 350 for an hour, uncovering during the last 10 minutes if desired.
