Mouth Watering Monday: Stuffed Cabbage mmmm

This is a great recipe!!! My kids even love it! Prep time is about 30 min. Cooking time is 20-25 min. and this recipe is low in cholesterol. Here is what you need.....

1 large head cabbage
1 pound lean ground beef (i use half beef and half turkey)
1/4 cup finely chopped onion
1/4 raisins
2 TB's fine dry bread crumbs
1 cup spaghetti sauce
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon.
This recipe makes 6 servings.
  • Remove 12 outer leaves from cabbage. Remove any tough center veins from the 12 leaves. Cook half of the cabbage leaves in boiling water for 3 min. to soften. Drain on paper towels. Repeat with remaining leaves.
  • Finely chop enough of the remaining cabbage to make 1/2 cup. Reserve for later.
  • In a large skillet cook ground beef, onion, and the 1/2 cup chopped cabbage till meat is no longer pink and onion is tender. Drain well. Stir in raisins, bread crumbs, and 1/4 cup of spaghetti sauce.
  • Spoon a scant 1/4 cup of the meat mixture onto each cabbage leaf; fold in sides. Roll up leaf, forming a bundle. Arrange rolls in a 12x71/2x2-inch baking dish.
  • For sauce, in a small bowl stir together the remaining spaghetti sauce and cinnamon. Spoon over cabbage rolls.
  • Bake, covered, in a 350 deg. oven for 20-25 minutes or until heated through.
