Very good flavors and a great alternative to stuffed cabbage when cooking for two. Cut the recipe in half and because I did not have the oatmeal decided to try a little instant white rice. Next time I will know that the rice was a perfect addition and cooked just fine. Also added about a tablespoon of golden raisins. Also a good addition. Great recipe.
If you like uncooked cabbage go ahead… too much sugar, kills the recipe…sorry not good
Delicious! Used ground turkey instead of beef so I doubled the spices since turkey is more bland. Also doubled the sauce and used maple syrup instead of sugar.
Will definitely make this again. My family loved it!
Delish!!!!!!!!!
Absolutely loved this dish. Easy to make. Will be a permanent addition to our monthly menu.
LOVE this recipe! The only thing I changed was using 1 lb of ground chuck and 1lb of Italian pork sausage. With more meat, I also upped the veggie amounts and an extra 8 ounces of tomato sauce. I served it over rice. It is even better as a leftover, THANK YOU for this keeper!
This was a great hit at dinner. I forgot the oatmeal and it was runny as a result, but the flavor was 5 star, thanks for sharing.
I added a teaspoon of paprika and it was a great recipe. My wife asked me to make it again 2 days later.
Easy out of the ordinary dinner! I always add cooked rice when I make it…fills it out a bit. Delicious recipe with ingredients I usually have on hand! Thank you!!
A great surprise! This dish comes together quickly and easily. I only changed two things. First, I used only 1 pound of ground beef. Second, I used a white pineapple balsamic vinegar instead of apple cider vinegar. Delicious dinner. We used the bread to stop up the sauce.
I followed this recipe outside of playing with more ingredients, and it turned out really good. I made the meat mixture, but layered that on top of partially baked, sliced potatoes. In between the cabbage layer, I threw in a layer of shredded carrots. On the top layer, I added about 10 sliced Compari tomatoes with the sauce. The cabbage took forever to soften and I eventually abandoned playing with it; shredding it would have been better, but the crunch left was actually pretty complementary to the rest of the soft ingredients. I will make this again!
I have been making this for years.
I thought it was very good and I didn’t change anything (except for fresh garlic) until it was cooking for a while and then I noticed how bland it was and that was even after I used some of my homemade tomato sauce which is a little more spicy then canned. I ended up dumping in some homemade salsa I had in fridge and also added a jalapeno pepper. I also thought there was too much cabbage so I will definitely cut down on that next time. There’s not enough “sauce” so I had to put in another can of tomato sauce which added to more vinegar and more brown sugar. So yeah I did end up doing more tweaking then I thought but I will make it again,
Forgot the oats, and used leftover chopped cabbage/carrots (coleslaw type, without the sauce) Then I stuck it in one dish, spread mashed manioc(or mashed potatoes would have the same effect) on top, shepperd’s pie style. Quick. Tasty. Definitely a keeper to use up cabbage
Very tasty recipe. I ground up fresh tomatoes for the sauce, but otherwise made as recommended. Kind of like a “deconstructed” cabbage roll.
My family liked this. I made some changes because we are trying to be healthier. Basically I used less meat, more vegetables, and more garlic and black pepper and left out the oatmeal entirely. I used 2 cans of diced tomatoes with basil, oregano and garlic instead of the tomato sauce. I’m sure the recipe as written is better than mine, but ours was more in line with our diet. I will make this again.
I added some fresh pineapple, which enhanced the sweet and sour flavour. If I make it again, I will shred the cabbage because it took much longer to cook than stated and I had to add extra sauce.
This was really, really , good!!! We added 1/2 lb of extra thick sliced applewood smoked bacon fried crisp to the meat mixture, and a can of diced tomatoes in sauce to the tomato sauce. Added extra vinegar and brown sugar to taste because we wanted the sauce to be nice and tangy. Also added a pinch of cayenne. We layered the meat, cabbage, and sauce in an ovenproof dish, and baked at 350 degrees x 75 minutes to let the flavored blend. We covered with tinfoil for the first hours then removed. Served with white rice and sour cream. Mmmmmmm.
Did it with ground beef and was great. Added fresh garlic to it. Also did it with ground brat meat and was fantastic.
YUP!! Straight-up delicious!! Hubby remarked several times about how much he enjoyed this dish. Quick, easy and awesome! Thanks!!
