Ingredients
  • • 4 cups cabbage, shredded
  • 1 28 oz. can tomatoes, undrained and chopped
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ½ cup (or more, to taste) chopped onion
  • 1 ½ tablespoon sunflower or other mellow-flavored oil
  • 2 cups cooked brown rice
  • 1/2 cup Crunchy Stuff (I like Pepperidge Farm Herbal stuffing crumbs, but you could use crumbled potato chips (the baked kind), breadcrumbs, matzah farfel, etc.)
  • 2 Tablespoons margarine melted (for Crunchy Stuff)

Directions
  1. Cook brown rice first, while you’re shredding your cabbage, etc. It should stand and get almost cool before you build the casserole.
  2. Combine first five ingredients in a large sauce pan and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer for five minutes.
  3. Place half of rice in a greased two quart casserole, then top with half of cabbage mixture. Repeat layers.
  4. Combine remaining ingredients, stirring well and sprinkle over casserole. Bake at 375 degrees F. for 45 mins.

Excellent! Great as a side or a main dish..Thank you, Lagoulue


Thanks, Chefg, I'm glad you liked it. It's one of my favorites.


Sounds interesting, cheap and delicious! I may try it with Panko bread crumbs for the crunchy stuff! Thanks!


This is interesting and sounds yummy!


I'm making this for dinner tonight, glad to have come across it. I have to add sausage or my husband would just die- no meat? WHAT?


Hi, Invisiblechef -- glad you like my recipe! I'm not at all a purist, and I think some sausage would be very good with this dish. Why not try kielbase (in keeping with the Polish-Ukrainian theme the dish was nominated for)?


Hi again, the only difference I made to your recipe was to add bratwursts, that I had cut up and then cooked. This was surprisingly good, and I'm going to be making it quite a bit now. I came across this recipe looking up cabbage in the pantry, since I had some and didn't know what to do with it, also already had the left over brown rice so it was perfect for what I had on hand. Great recipe!


Sounds good and also healthy. Love cabbage!!


Oh this sounds GOOD! I love cabbage and tomatoes, I am on a special diet and this looks like it would be great as low sodium also.


Hi Cattrix, thanks for your comments. I agree, this recipe would be very good adapted for low sodium. Just substitute "low-salt packed" canned tomatoes for the regular kind, and either omit or reduce the salt. (You might also want to increase the chopped onion, and saute it lightly before adding it -- the savor of sauteed onion might "round out" the flavors in the absence of salt.) Let me know if you try it and how it turns out!


Sounds like my kind of meal....cheap & good!


Awsome tasty recipe made it thanks high5 good.


Wonderful dish, thank you for the post for the frugal foodies. Yum.
