Stuffed Cabbage

So here is my recipe for stuffed cabbage.  My husband is not a fan of cabbage so I like to make extra filling so that it can be poured on top to allow more to be eaten.  This recipe size is for about 2 people depending on how stuffed you want the cabbage. 
Start by boiling a pot of water.
Then take a small cabbage and separate the leaves.  I like to cut the individual leafs off the cabbage to begin with so It cooks a LOT faster than sticking the entire cabbage in the water to be boiled but also you don't have to worry about tearing the pieces apart when you try to separate the leaves.  Boil this for 5 minutes or longer for bigger portions.  Then drain and let set in cold water.  


 Next in a large skillet take a tablespoon of butter and saute one diced Roma tomato with 3 green onions diced.  Allow to saute for just a few moments then add in one pound of lean ground turkey and cook thoroughly. Then add one cup of cooked rice and 1/3 cup of tomato or spaghetti sauce.  I like to season this with garlic powder, onion powder and Italian seasoning. 


 
Next take your cabbage leaves and fill them with your stuffing and fold them over into each other.  Then lay it out in an un-greased pan. 






Next I pour the left over stuffing on top of this and top it with the remainder of the spaghetti sauce and then bake it in the oven at 350 for 30 minutes.  Then enjoy :-)
