Ok, I GET IT! You hear cabbage and think, ‘Next’. GIVE THIS ONE A SHOT! It is really good!! I told Basili (my husband) we were having Unstuffed Cabbage Rolls and he kind of scoffed at the idea of cabbage rolls and told me he would order a pizza if he didn’t like them. Challenge accepted. He tried it and proceeded to have a second bowl! I was pleasantly surprised with how much I enjoyed them too! Even Noah, our 1 year old, was asking for more!
What I like even more than the taste was that this recipe was SO simple! It is a one-skillet meal and was really quick! I did prepare some brown rice for Basili, so that required a separate small pot. 🙂 I topped this dish with some cheese and BOOM, dinner.
This one is a winner, for sure!
