I’ve got my crock pot out today it is october. So yes, it is time I am going to be making crock-pot cabbage rolls now cabbage rolls and me go way back to when I was young and my mom made those individual cabbage rolls and baked them in the oven. Those are so delicious. You would steam your cabbage and roll them full of goodness. Yes, I today still have that same recipe, but today i’m going to take rolled cabbage rolls and we’re going to deconstruct them in the crock pot and make it a soup guys.
If you haven’t tried this one, try it, it is so delicious. Okay, let’s go ahead and get started, okay, so the first thing you want to do anytime that you’re going to be doing a hamburger in a crock pot. Is you want to make sure you brown it first, so i’m going to go ahead and cook this up with i’ve got two small onions that I just chopped up. So we’re going to go ahead and brown, those together all right.

So i’ve got my pan on a medium high heat, i’m just going to add just a little bit of oil there and then we’re going to add one and a half pounds of ground beef. Now, using my meat chopper here or you can use a wooden spoon, just break up your meat and start browning it and, as that’s happening, i’m going to go ahead and add my onion i’m going to season this, because you know you always want to season your Layers, i’m going to season with some salt and some pepper all right as soon as this is all browned up, which will just take a few minutes.
What we’re going to do at that point is drain the grease out of it and then place it into the bottom of our crock pot. All right we’re going to start by adding one can of tomato soup. This is a 10 ounce can all right. So i’m going to be using a 14 ounce can of rotel tomatoes. Now this has green chilies in it. If you want to use just a regular can of diced tomatoes, 14 ounce, you can do that. Also we’re going to add some flavor to this all right.
I’ve got a full box of beef broth here you can also use chicken broth for a lighter flavor. This is 32 ounces. I’ve got one tablespoon of minced garlic, all right rice now uncooked rice – and this is a long grain white basmati rice. As long as it’s a long grain white rice, you can use that one cup all right. Let’s give that a mix all right, let’s season with some pepper, i’m going to be salty this you guys, because we got a lot of cabbage going in and it’s going to need that salt and I got some bell peppers going in yay.
My husband likes this soup, but he loves it with the bell peppers in it. It’s not really a traditional ingredient inside of a cabbage roll, but in the soup. Oh, it gets really soft and flavorful. It’s really delicious. Okay, let me add the other two ingredients. Let’s go ahead and start chopping up our cabbage and bell peppers. Okay, so i’ve taken a large head of cabbage and I just chopped off the kind of the four sides of it.
We want about three to four cups of cabbage. You want to make sure that it’s going to fit into your crock pot. Now i’m using a six quart crock pot here and if you want to check it out i’ll link it down below in the description box under what type that I use. So what I did was, I just wedged it kind of like here and then I am cutting it into bite size pieces, so it’ll fit on the spoon. Okay, that’s what we’re looking for, not huge big pieces, but so i’m just taking it and then cutting it into pieces here.

That’s why I put everything in the crock pot first and then add the cabbage. So I don’t over. Add cabbage, okay and anything left over on your cabbage head. You can use for coleslaw or add to other soups or other dishes saute it up. Oh, I love it sauteed up with like chicken broth, butter, salt, pepper and garlic. Oh my gosh. It’s a really delicious side dish for that. Okay, i’m going to start adding this into my crock pot, all right so with the peppers, i’m just going to cut off the four sides and anything extra on the pepper here, we’ll throw into the soup.
Also. Now I have other cabbage roll recipes out there. I’ve actually done a recipe on the full cabbage rolls where you wrap up the meat mixture, and then you bake them in the oven and also I have a casserole out there for cabbage roll, also so i’ll link those down below. If you want to check those out we’re going to finish this up and i’m going to bring you right back guys, you know like in a soup, you control what you put in there.
Okay, if you don’t want the bell peppers in there, you don’t have to put them in there control your flavor, whatever you want to do, i’m going to mix this all together here, gosh fall is in the air right. This is good. This is good for any time. I just love cabbage rolls, so this is faster, but it actually sits all day, but it’s just fast to put together. Okay, i’ve got the lid on we’re going to cook this on high for three to four hours or on a low for about six hours.
