    This tastes great. The cabbage had a weird, limp texture to it, making it a little hard to eat...but the taste was really yummy. I'd make it again. Maybe next time in the crockpot. - 3/9/11

    I sure would make this recipe again. I changed it though. I added 2 cloves of minced garlic & some diced mushrooms to the meat mixture. I stuffed the cabbage leaves without pre cooking them. Then I put them in a 13 X9 pan, added the veggies with 1 c. V8 and baked 1/2 hour. Very Good! - 10/20/10
