Let me tell you a secret, I don’t like cooked cabbage. Ok, thats a broad statement, I like egg rolls, and I like raw cabbage but cooked, no thanks. It stinks….BUT…. have you ever made cabbage rolls? Friend, let me say, I loved them! The cabbage is essentially tasteless, I guess that’s because they didn’t boil with the meat? I don’t know, but I know this, they are yummy and I’ve made them more than once already!

Look how beautiful these are, yes, so good! I have the recipe right here, my sister in law is and amazing cook and she makes some delightful things, so here ya go friends! Make some cabbage rolls and let us know what you think!!

Before the recipe, here are my rolling tips! this makes the cutest little cabbage rolls!!!

First….Put that little pile of meat filling just above the area where you remove the stem

Step 2: fold the 2 v flips in the bottom corners up and criss cross, the pull the tail up and hold it in the center of the meat filling.

Step 3: fold in the upper sides to make the roll the same width at the top as it is at the bottom.

Step 4: Start rolling your little cabbage roll nugget up

Step 5: And there it is! Beautiful!!

Now dump some sauce on top and bake this up!! Here’s the recipe!!
