Ingredients
- Green Cabbage
- Ground Beef
- Cooked Rice
- Onion
- Garlic
- Tomato Sauce
- Shredded Cheese
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Prepare a baking dish by greasing it lightly.
- Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Carefully add the whole head of cabbage and boil for about 5 minutes, or until the outer leaves are tender and pliable. Remove the cabbage and let it cool slightly, then peel off the leaves.
- In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, cooked rice, chopped onion, minced garlic, salt, and pepper. Mix until well combined.
- Take a cabbage leaf and place about 2-3 tablespoons of the filling at the base of the leaf. Roll it up tightly, tucking in the sides as you go to secure it. Repeat with remaining leaves and filling.
- Arrange the rolls seam-side down in the prepared baking dish. Top with tomato sauce and sprinkle with shredded cheese.
- Bake in the preheated oven for about 30-35 minutes, until the cheese is bubbly and golden brown.
- Let the rolls sit for 5 minutes before serving to solidify slightly. Enjoy your cheesy cabbage rolls!
