“This is my version of cabbage rolls using ground turkey instead of ground beef. This dish freezes well, so you can have half for dinner and freeze the other half for another time. Mashed potatoes make a good side dish.” - by DHANO923

"I'm giving 4 stars due to the amount of changes made. I sauted 3 cloves of garlic with the onion, turkey. Then I substituted 4 ounces of the tomato sauce with hot salsa to the meat mixture. Gave it..." See more some great flavour. No one had mentioned how to easily get the cabbage leaves off. I recomend cutting off the end of the cabbage head and blanching it in boiling water. The leaves will soften and can be peeled off and rolled much easier. This is also an important step if you want nice tender cabbage in the finished product."

"This recipe yielded about 24 cabbage rolls. I found it helpful to soak the cabbage head in hot water for a few minutes to soften the leaves before trying to remove them, otherwise they ripped apart to..." See moreo easily. My only complaint is that I ended up with a very watery sauce after I removed the rolls from the oven--I think water comes out of the cabbage leaves during cooking. Next time I would omit water from the sauce and see if that helps."
