Ingredients 

  • 1 large savoy cabbage
  • 2 pounds lean ground beef
  • 2 medium to large onions
  • 2 tablespoons canola oil, Bertolli olive oil, or butter
  • 1 cup white or brown rice
  • 2 cups water
  • 3 Eggland’s Best eggs
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons Morton salt
  • 1 teaspoon pepper
  • 2 cans tomato soup
  • 2 small bottles of tomato juice or vegetable cocktail (like V8)
  • 1 can or small carton chicken broth

Directions for Making Cabbage Rolls
Prepare the Cabbage:

  1. Freeze the Cabbage:
    • Place the savoy cabbage in a bag and freeze it for 12 hours or overnight.
    • Remove and let it thaw at room temperature. This softens the leaves, making them easier to work with without boiling.

Prepare the Filling:

  1. Cook the Rice:
    • In a small saucepan or microwave-safe dish, cook the rice with 2 cups of water. Set aside to cool. You can prepare the rice the day before and store it in the refrigerator.
  2. Sauté the Onions:
    • Finely chop the onions and sauté them in oil or butter over low heat until golden brown. Set aside to cool.
  3. Mix the Filling:
    • In a large bowl, break apart the ground beef. Add the salt, pepper, eggs, sautéed onions, and cooled rice. Mix thoroughly with your hands until well combined.

Assemble the Cabbage Rolls:

  1. Prepare the Cabbage Leaves:
    • Remove the leaves from the cabbage, cutting away the tough part near the core.
  2. Fill and Roll the Cabbage Leaves:
    • Place about 1/3 to 1/2 cup of the meat mixture at the base of each cabbage leaf. The amount may vary depending on the size of the leaf.
    • Roll the leaf tightly around the filling and place it in a greased casserole dish. Repeat until all the meat mixture is used.
    • Prepare the Sauce:
