What is the recipe for the sauce?
Went exactly by recipe
an easy way to do the cabbage is to freeze it, thaw and cut the v notch and roll as usual. the cabbage will be very pliable and there is no boiling of the leaves :)
I made these exactly as stated. They were awesome! The whole family loved them.
My husband is a diabetic & I use Brown Sugar Blend (a mix of zero calorie sucralose & brown sugar, 1/2 the calories - great for cooking & baking. 1/2 a cup= 1 cup brown sugar). Mine came from Meijer's , 1 lb. bag for $4.09. My husband loves to sprinkle this on his cooked oatmeal. Hope this helps , 1-5-15's question.
to answer question submitted on 01-05-15 I don't know if you have type 1 or type 2 diabetes and this is not intended toinstruct you,contact your Dr. if you have need of advice on your diet. I will say however that the nutrition info. indicates just 19 grams of carb. per serving and my info. is that meals with less than 25 gms. of carb. are considered good.
I am so excited to try this, it sounds like it is amazing, but I have a question I am a diabetic how can I switch the brown sugar with something, or can u recommend what I can do instead of putting brown sugar in it, or do u think it would not affect me to much. I am going grocery shopping tomorrow, so I will check back before i go shopping, please can someone answer or maybe i can go online now and ask t u
I have a batch of these in my crockpot right now...second time. I made them last week and my husband and I devoured them all real quick! These are so good...the only change I made this time was to triple the sauce amount. They are healthy and easy to make..we love it with mashed potatoes on the side and a lightly toasted sub roll. Delicious!!
These were yummy! I might add more tomato sauce next time.
These were excellent - my husband was a bit skeptical when they were cooking in the slow cooker but after one bite (no exaggeration!) he said, "You can make these again anytime." The only reason I did not give this 5 out of 5 was because of the instructions. I think Taste of Home should have provided a link (or a "side bar" in the magazine, where I found this recipe) on how to remove the leaves from the cabbage. This was very tricky for someone like me who has never made them before. Luckily, I have read other cabbage roll recipes and had to rely on them to give instructions on the easiest method to remove the leaves. I ended up steaming the cabbage after removing the core for about 10 minutes then gently removed the leaves, cooking them further as per the submitter's instructions. A great number of the leaves ended up ripping so I just pieced them together when rolling them up with the filling. A bit messy but worth it in the end, given my husband's comments!
