Vegetarian Cabbage Rolls

Oven Temperature: 
350 degrees F
Ingredients: 
  • 1 med sized cabbage
  • 1/2 cup onion, chopped
  • 1/2 cup celery, chopped
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 1/2 cup green bell pepper, chopped
  • 1 1/2 cups brown rice, cooked
  • 1 cup tomato sauce (or more. You need enough to cover the rolls)
  • 1/4 tsp sage
  • 2 cloves garlic, chopped
  • salt
Instructions: 

1) Steam cabbage until whole leaves can be removed (I sometimes do this in stages, peeling off the outside ones as they become soft to allow the inside ones to be steamed). Steam veggies until nearly tender.

2) Mix cooked rice, veggies and seasonings together. Depending on your leaf size, place 1/4 to 1/2 cup of the mixture in cabbage leaf and roll up into a bundle, closing the ends in as you roll.

3) Place your cabbage rolls into a baking dish with the tomato sauce and water.

4) Cover and bake at 350 degrees for 45 minutes. Uncover during the last 5 minutes or so.

Notes: 

This is simple and yummy. I haven't been able to eat it in a long time (the high amount of rice and the gas-producing cabbage is too much for my system at the moment) but it is a filling food. Add cooked meat if you like (just cut down on the rice amount)
