Aunt Sarahs Unstuffed Stuffed Cabbage Recipe

	Ttaaccoo / All my dishes 1 year, 2 months ago This has the flavors of stuffed cabbage, but none of the hassles of "perfect cabbage leaves". Comes from Ellis Island Immigrant Cookbook. This recipe is from Russia early 1900's. Very delicious and easy. It is even better cooked ahead and reheated.... More Prep:15m Cook:12m Servings:6	Ttaaccoo

Oh, those gingersnaps--very very Euro. My grandmother always used raisins and tomatoes (providing the acid), but these would certainly do the job ;--)

I was thinking about making this yesterday. Do not have gingersnaps, and will sub something else. all I can think of is gingerroot--any suggestions?
This is very easy and delish. And keeps a few days. To all of you, thank you for your nice comments.
