The Crockpot layered Cabbage Rolls came about because I'm lazy. I saw a recipe a few years back to make cabbage rolls and cook them in the crockpot. However, still too much work, so I took several recipes and came up with this recipe. Instead of rolling it, I just layer it in the crockpot. We love it. Fast, easy and delicious.
Nothing needs to be measured.
Mix about 1 cup of uncooked minute rice (do to your preference) with 1 to 1.5 lbs of leaner hamburger (raw), salt and pepper to your liking (or I prefer Cavander's Greek Seasoning) and a small to med onion finely chopped. In separate bowl, mix 2 cans of tomato sauce with about a tablespoon or two Worchestershire. In crockpot, layer a third of a small cabbage (I just slice it up). Then a layer of meat mixture. I pour tomato mixture and Greek Seasoning (or Salt and Pepper) over every layer. I usually get 3 layers of cabbage and two of meat. Prefer to cook high for an hour or two and low the rest of day, but if I start early in day, can cook low all day.
I originally cooked rice to add to the meat, but tried it with minute rice and think it is fine. Now it is even easier.
The Kielbasa Stew is something that was emailed to me from some newsletter. Reviews on it were 4 out of 5 star. I thought it was good (not great), but I might make it again. It was a good, fall meal on a cold night. Everyone did eat it so that's a plus.
I would leave off the cheddar cheese, it added nothing to the meal except fat.
