This cabbage rolls recipe is super easy to prep with cabbage leaves, ground beef, rice, and condensed tomato soup. I have been using this recipe for well over 20 years and still love it! To speed things up the rolls are cooked in a skillet on the stovetop but this recipe also works well in a slow cooker.
In this stuffed cabbage roll recipe, cabbage leaves are filled with a flavorful beef mixture and topped with an easy homemade sauce.?

How to Store Stuffed Cabbage Rolls
Store the cooled cabbage rolls in a shallow, airtight container in the refrigerator for up to four days. Reheat the cabbage rolls thoroughly in the oven for the best results, but you can use the microwave in a pinch.?
Can You Freeze Stuffed Cabbage Rolls?
Yes, but it?s best to freeze the cabbage rolls before you cook them. Fill and tightly roll the cabbage rolls, then flash freeze them on a baking sheet.

Cookdap Community Tips and Praise
?I have made this recipe a couple different times — and it is absolutely delicious,? raves one Cookdap community member. ?I have added this to my permanent list of recipes.?
?This is the same recipe my Polish great grandma used,? according to Sourgirl. ?The ONLY thing she did differently was to throw some good sauerkraut on top of the rolls before she baked them. But this recipe is perfect as-is, so no need to add anything!?
?This is just what I was looking for, the classic stuffed cabbage recipe,? says joysgirl. ?The only thing I changed was using Beyond Beef as a substitute for ground beef and it was excellent!?
Ingredients
- 2/3 cup water
- 1/3 cup uncooked white rice
- 8 cabbage leaves
- 1 pound lean ground beef
- ¼ cup chopped onion
- 1 egg, slightly beaten
- 1 (10.5 ounce) can condensed tomato soup, divided
- 1 teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
Directions
Step 1
Bring water and rice to a boil in a saucepan. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer until rice is tender and liquid has been absorbed, about 20 minutes.
Step 2
Meanwhile, bring a large, wide saucepan of lightly salted water to a boil. Add cabbage leaves and cook for 2 to 4 minutes or until softened; drain.
Step 3
Combine ground beef, 1 cup of cooked rice, onion, egg, 2 tablespoons of tomato soup, salt, and pepper in a large bowl; mix thoroughly.
Step 4
Spoon about 2 tablespoons of beef mixture onto each cabbage leaf; bring one end of the cabbage leaf over the mixture, rolling and tucking in the ends to prevent the filling from falling out.
Step 5
Place cabbage rolls in a large skillet over medium heat; pour remaining tomato soup on top. Cover and bring to a boil; reduce heat to low and simmer for about 40 minutes, stirring and basting with the liquid often.

I thought this was wonderful, so did my boyfriend! I will be making this one alot this fall and winter Thanks for sharing!!!!!!
-
Tastes just like the one at home when I was a child! Gooood!
-
I saute 1/4 cup chopped green pepper with the onion before adding to the meat mixture. I also cook for at least an hour. These are even better the next day.
-
Just needs a little more seasoning in the mixture otherwise it is very good and very filling.

This is about as easy as it gets for a cabbage roll recipe! I’ve made it a couple of times and I really love the results. I usually double it (I’m very big on leftovers!) and use 1/2 ground beef and 1/2 ground turkey to lighten it up a wee bit. I also add a pinch of ground nutmeg and a bit of garlic powder to the meat mixture to bring out the eastern european flavor.

Good and relatively easy!

Great recipe Judy!! Good old fashion meal. Easy to do. I added a teaspoon of Thyme and garlic powder to the meat mixture for more flavor. A keeper in my recipe box at Big Mama’s kitchen.

I made this for dinner tonight. It certainly was a hit. I did use spaghetti sauce instead of soup, and baked it in the oven at 350 degrees for about 1 hour. Thanks for the recipe:)

This has been a family favorite for many years!
I add 1 Tbs lemon juice and 1Tbs brown sugar to the tomato soup,just like my mom always did…this is yummy! true comfort food, with a side of creamy mashed potatoes. -

I made some substitutions and it turned out great. I didn’t have ground beef so I used ground turkey. I used a little more meat than it called for, so I added a little extra rice and onion. I used the amount called for, for the other ingredients. 2 hours in a slow cooker set to high worked great for me. Try this one!!
-
I thought this was a little bland. I used a can of diced tomatoes and added about a teaspoon of worchestershire sauce and about 3 TB of brown sugar and cooked it in my crock pot. It was pretty good then.
-
I never realized how easy it was to make cabbage rolls. My family really enjoyed these. I did add extra tomato juice to the sauce (to make more of it!) and I added some Worcestershire, white pepper and paprika. Yum – I really liked what I got!
-
A good recipe. I sauteed the onion with some minced garlic before adding to the beef mixture. Instead of tomato soup, I used a 28 oz can of whole tomatoes (cutting each in half) adding a few cloves of minced garlic and a pinch of mixed herbs.

These were definitely the best on the first day. Somehow, the meat in the leftovers got a little dry and tough. But my hubbie loved it and he HATES cabbage!

This was very good, but not excellent until spiced up with brown sugar and lemon juice to taste. Beat’s my mother’s (hope she doesn’t see this)

My husband and I love these. It is similar to the filling in stuffed peppers. My parents always made these with beef gravy instead of tomato soup and I intend to try it next time.

This was totally what I was looking for. Had 3 heads of cabbage ready to something with in my garden — made a HUGE batch of these and froze them for “ready to cook meals”. We thawed some the other day and cooked them — DELICIOUS! I great comfort food served with mashed potatoes. Even the kids inhaled them!

This really made my husband happy. He is always asking for stuffed cabbage and I am always saying it is too much work, but this was a very easy and delicious recipe and I will most definitely be making this again. I added some spaghetti sauce because there didn’t seem to be enough soup and I cooked it for about an hour.

when you put in it the large pan on the stovetop there isnt enough juice to boil.there is only the condenced tomatoe soup on top of the rolls.i had to transfer them to a baking pan and bake them at 350 for almost an hour.also i think it would have been better with more tomatoe soup in the mix.other than that they came out great and my guests really enjoyed.
-
i make this alot..good stuff! but i use a family sized can of tomato soup for the gravy and add thyme and worschester sauce to the soup along w/ a little extra pepper. i put the cabbage rolls in a 13X9″ glass baking pan , pour the soup over it ,cover w/ foil and bake for an hour. great and i dont have to watch the stove!
-
This was a great recipe 🙂 I did change things up a little! I added a little garlic and paprika to the meat mixture. I used a family size can of tomato soup and added a cup of beer to that (my polish grandmother’s secret!) i simmered them in that sauce and they tasted delicious!

1st Try: Used brown rice (cooked 25 min with 1 cup water) and added a sm. can of tomato sauce to the soup – too tomato-ey. Also added some breakfast sausage to the burger b/c I needed to use it up, but I wouldn’t recommend it. Overall it was pretty good, but it didn’t taste quite like I think cabbage rolls should. Next time I’ll stick closer to the recipe and more rice.
2nd try: Much better! My husband said “I could eat this every day” – I thought it was still a little bland, so I’ll be working on that. I stuck to the recipe except used 1/2 cup dry brown rice cooked in water w/beef bullion. I still need to experiment with the cooking time and amt. of water on the rice, will try 1c. water cooked for 20 minutes next time.
For the poster who wanted to know how to get the leaves off the cabbage, I cut a square straight down into the cabbage around the core, then pull the leaves off from the bottom. Works much better than trying from the top!
-
Delicious! I used the family size can of tomato soup and it was great! I have never made these before and I can’t wait to make them again. Big hit in my house! We like garlic so I added fresh minced garlic to the filling, even better 🙂 You have to try it!

A great and simple recipe for cabbage rolls. To cut down on prep time, I used minute rice. Also, I added minced garlic to the beef mixture and 1 tbsp brown sugar and 1 tbsp lemon juice to the sauce. I added generous amounts of spaghetti sauce over top. It won’t look very “saucy” at first, but as the beef cooks, a lot of liquid forms in the pan and simmers while it cooks. Like others suggested, I cooked mine in covered 9×13 pan at 350F for about an hour and it turned out perfectly. It is definately a recipe I will keep, and will probaby replace the old and time-consuming one I had before. Try it, it’s great!

The first time I prepared this recipe I took a gamble that it was be as good as everyone raved and doubled the recipe to I’d have plenty of leftovers.
It was well worth it! Even the hubby, who is not a big cabbage fan, went back for thirds.
While I doubled the recipe, I tripled the soup (I like lots of sauce) and added on can of beer as one reviewer recommended (I used Red Dog). If it’s good enough for LMG1115’s polish grandmother, it’s good enough for me! 🙂 And believe you me, it was GOOD! -

Awesome!

I slimed it down with ground chicken and it was still tasty and very easy.

I personally really liked this recipe and would give it 5 stars but….my parents said it was too sweet and a tiny tiny bit bland. So next time I may use another substitute for the tomato soup perhaps tomato juice. I took advice from others and used about 2 cans of soup becuase 1 can was not enough.
-
PERFECT! i used one can of tomato soup and one can of tomato sauce, we like lots of gravy. also added some garlic powder and a little parmesan. served with mashed potatoes.

This was my first time making cabbage rolls, and I was surprised at how easy this was. I didn’t add rice to the beef mixture (hubby’s on a low carb craze) and just added garlic powder, salt and pepper. I baked mine, and added one can of tomato sauce and half a jar of spaghetti sauce with peppers and onion. Baked it at 350 until the meat was done. Topped it with some parmesean cheese. My family really enjoyed this. Thanks for the recipe Judy!

I was afraid this recipe would be bland as written so I added quite a few more seasonings including: 1/4 tsp thyme, 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder, ~1/8 tsp paprika, and a dash of cayenne pepper. I also increased the onion to 1/2 cup, used brown rice, and substituted 1 14 oz can of stewed tomatoes and half a jar of spaghetti sauce for the tomato soup. I cooked in the oven at 350 in 9×13 covered with foil for 50 minutes.
All in all, this was really good, and with my changes it’s definitely a 5-star recipe. My husband agreed, so this recipe is a keeper.

An easy way to separate the cabbage is to take off the outer leaves making it a manageable size. Bring a large pot of water to boil then putting the whole cabbage in the water. Watch how much water you have in the pot because the cabbage will raise the level quite a bit. Parboil for about 5 or 6 minutes, drain the water & place the cabbage in cold water to stop the cooking. The leaves come off very well and are pliable to work with. Hope this helps.

this was ok, but i’ll keep looking. the sauce is lacking in flavor so i can see why people are using things like spaghetti sauce.

This recipe is pretty close to the one I’ve been making. Just a few tips: For a quicker cook time, you can cook the beef while the rice is cooking. At that time you can flavor the beef with onions and seasonings. The cabbage doesn’t need to be pre-cooked because the sauce cooks it quite well. Try mixing mushroom soup with the tomato soup and a bit of salt.
-
Because of my ethnic background, I decided to try this recipe. It lacked something which I found to be onions. Believe it or not, I used 1/2 lbs. of onion, chopped and sauteed til softened cooled and added to ground chuck instead of lean beef and instead of 1/3 cup of rice per pound, I used 1/4 cup rice UNcooked. Instead of tomato soup, I used ketchup and water to just about cover. From the l pound of ground meat, this recipe yielded 15 rolls. Drew a lot of compliments from the family.

I used spagetti sauce instead of tomato soup. My husband said it was better than his mom’s stuffed cabbage rolls. That’s all I needed to hear. This will be a regular for us.
-
Excellent. I used ground pork versus beef for a different flavor (preference only) — and it worked out great. During the last 2 minutes of cooking, I raised the heat just a tad to slightly “caramelize” some of the soup directly beneath the rolls, giving a bit of a sweeter flavor… Great recipie.

I also have used this recipie for 20+ years. After I pour the soup over the cabbage rolls, I add undrained/unrinsed sauerkraut. It helps to keep them moist and adds an extra ZING.

I have used this recipe for quite a few years now and always get rave reviews. I add about 3 heaping tablespoonsful of brown sugar and 1 tablespoonful of lemon juice to the soup. I also add worcestershire sauce and 1 teaspoon of red pepper flakes to the meat and rice mixture to kick it up anotch. Yummy

We didn’t care for this too much. I made the mistake of not using really lean meat, so the dish was greasy and too rich. I don’t know if I’d make it again. Was not what I thought it would be. Sorry.

I used brown rice and it worked well. My only issue was, the cabbage was so well done, it no longer taste like cabbage. Next time, I’ll do like another reviewer and bake them.

I thought this recipe was quite good. I took other reviewers suggestions and used spagetti sauce instead of the soup. I also added lemon to the sauce and red pepper flakes and worcestershire to the stuffing. I like my food really spicy so I also added a bit of cayenne pepper. Doubling the sauce also ensured the meat didn’t turn out dry.

My dad taught me how to make these years ago..and we just love them! i use the same basic recipie,only adding can tomatoes and spag sauce and chopping up the remaining cabbage into the pot. ( we use a BIG pot). They get eatten up every time!

I changed a lot of this recipe based on previous reviews but still gave it 5 stars. I used instant brown rice and it worked just fine. Additions: 1 tbsp of brown sugar and lemon juice, couple of squirts of Worcestershire(?) sauce, few dashes of paprika and garlic powder. I used 2 cans of stewed/diced tomotoes in seasonings instead of tomoto soup (I think that would be bland). I did not steam the leaves first. I baked at 350 for an hour. My husband and 20 month old really liked it! Oh, so did I:)

My grandmother taught me this recipie. I make about 3 times the amount you do, because everyone in my extended family wants some! I usually scrape down the “vein” on the cabbage leaves, use a little more onion in the mix and about twice as much tomato soup. Also, once all the cabbage rolls are ready, “Gram” would dice up and carmalize an additional onion and mix in with the soup. Gave it a little extra flavor.

These were delicious. Like other reviewers, I added some garlic powder, a few drops of worcestershire sauce, and one tablespoon each lemon juice and brown sugar to the meat mixture. I also added half a jar of spaghetti sauce to the tomato soup, and added 4 tablespoons of this to the meat instead of 2. I baked these at 350 for about 50 minutes, and we loved them!

I added about 2 tablespoons of caraway seeds and some extra salt…otherwise, this was great!

This is a good starter recipe for stuffed cabbage. Like the other reviewers, I modified the recipe by using ground turkey, and adding Worcestershire sauce, lemon juice and minced, fresh garlic to the meat mixture. I also added two tbsp of brown sugar, but I wish that I hadn’t. The end taste was too sweet, because to me, stuffed cabbage should be slightly tangy, not sweet.

I put in the crock pot and added 3 more cans of tomato soup(I like a lot of sauce). They were good but needed more salt and pepper.

I have never made these before because I don’t like them. I decided to suprise my husband with something different for him. He ate half the pan and said they were good. I did alter the recipe like alot of the other reviewers did. I think I will continue to use this recipe.

This recipe is excellent! My husband loved it and rated it a 5 star and he grew up in a Polish family. My only complaint is the rice was done in under 15 minutes, no way it could have gone to 20 minutes. I did add just a dash of garlic powder after reading rewiews but I really don’t think it needs it. This recipe will be a favorite in our fanily.

I loved this! I substituted fake eggs, brown rice, and ground turkey and it came out delicious. I am a big fan of 1 pot cooking and this really made it. You can steam the cabbage over the rice and them simmer in the same pot after a quick rinse.

Worked out great! the only deviations i did was i cooked 1 cup uncooked rice (it’s easier to cook a full cup) and i added a little water in the pan with the rolls and soup to add more moisture and prevent sticking to the fying pan! Very Tasty!!!

I was planning on making my grandmother’s stuffed cabbage recipe tomorrow for my dad’s birthday but could not remember what we used to top them with when i was a girl helping her to make them. I thought it was tomato soup but kept questioning myself, guess what, yours is the exact recipe she used, thanks!

I think it is more fair to say 8 cabbage rolls is 4 servings. Served this with parsley carrots. Used 1/2 cup applesauce instead of egg and added some cinnamon with the apple flavor. Also added 2 chopped fresh tomatoes and about 1/2 cup bread crumbs since this made it a bit too soupy. Also added about 1/2 soup can of water with the tomato soup topping. This allowed it to cook at a very low temperature for a couple of hours.

Ok, so…this was easy to make. But…the meat filling is bland and dry. So…as suggested by many…go ahead and add some seasonings to it cause it will need it. The sauce is bland as well. I see why many used spagetti sauce instead. It sure won’t be authentic but it will taste better than plain tomato soup. There’s plenty of room for improvement here.

I love this recipe! I really don’t eat red meat. (Dieting) so I subsituted the ground beef for ground turkey and with the onion and soup you can’t tell. Also I added to the tomato soup crushed tomatos with spices. But this is really simple to make and freeze the leftovers.

Even though I switched out the ground beef for turkey, this recipe tasted great!

Good basic recipe. Using suggestions of others, I made changes, and I feel made the recipe even better. Used uncooked rice, sauteed the onion with some garlic, and added some of the tomatoes to the meat mixture. After stuffing the cabbage, I combined one can tomato soup and two cans crushed tomatoes for the sauce (tho I would use more tomato soup less crushed tomatoes next time). I placed this in a baking dish, covered and baked at 350 for 50 minutes. Delicious.

Pretty good…once I figured out how to take the leaves off the cabbahe head with out ripping them! (I boiled the whole head for 10 mins)
I added LOTS of onion and about 1tbsp garlic powder, salt & pepper too. I also added 2 cans tomato soup & 1 can diced tomatoes and mixe dwith half can of water to make it a little more liquidy so I could baste more.
I used 1.5 pounds lean gr.beef & 1 cup rice, lots of onion & spices and I was able to make about 25 cabbage rolls. Serves 5 in my house! LOL! -

This was very good – I added garlic for seasoning and doubled the recipe cooking 1/2 on the stove and the others in the oven. By far the stovetop were best! The sauce really cooks down and is more flavorful on the stovetop.

This is exactly how my mom used to make stuffed cabbage! I made it for my dad and sister the other night, and they both agreed. I used 1-1/2 lbs of meat, made 12 rolls and used 2 “family size” cans of tomato soup (that’s the best part). I cooked it for 8 hours on low in a crock pot. Served with boiled potatoes. NOTE: You can also use a meat mixture of ground beef/pork in a 3:1 ratio.

I made these over the weekend. I followed the advice of others who suggested I should season the meat more. I did that, I also seasoned the tomato soup. I did use two cans of soup because one didnt seem like enough. Im going to be trying this in the crockpot. Its a great base recipe.

Not bad…made in crock pot and used venison and brown rice. Added quite a bit of garlic and spices to meat but that’s probably because of the taste of the venison.

Excellent base recipe. Good for leftover rice. Used 1 can of condensed tomato soup and 1 large can of crushed oregano, basil, garlic tomato. I added a 1/4 tsp of oregano to meat mixture and substituted 1/4 cup of Egg Starts(meat surprisingly held together well). I would definitely make this again, but with maybe more oregano and maybe garlic powder. I also like my tomato sauce on this a little sweeter, so I’ll be adding a bit of sugar next time. But overall they came out delicious and very presentable.

very good! I NEVER cook. EVER. made this for my boyfriend that loves cabbage rolls. was scared to make them but with the tips from other comments on here they turned out great!! I browned the meat first and put sauce (not soup) over them. Couldnt imagine not adding a LOT more spices,I also baked them and then reheated them for dinner the next day, tasted MUCH better. A very good basic recipe to learn from! will make them again for sure!

I’ve been using this recipe for 20 years. When my kids were little I called them “space burgers”–they would NEVER eat cabbage!! They loved the space burgers though and never knew they were cabbage rolls. The only thing I add is a small can of drained corn and use uncooked minute rice. It also helps to put leftover leaves on the top and the bottom of your crockpot or baking dish.

This recipe taste just like my mothers and grandmothers. The only thing I changed was to par boil the whole head of cabbage. It makes it easier to take the leaves off. Just be carefull not to over boil.

I’ve never had cabbage rolls before but this is the results of searching for a recipe that uses ground beef and cabbage. It was really good!!! I also had some ground pork sausage so I mixed that with the beef based on other’s comments saying it was kind of bland. I increased the tomato soup to a large can for more sauce. I and my friend thought they were great!!! Thanks for the great recipe. Update: I made this for a dinner party with the girls- three people asked me for the recipe and two already made it within a week!!

These were delicious! We did follow some of the suggestions to use tomato sauce instead of tomato soup, and to add a bit of oregano to the meat mixture. In the future, it wouldn’t hurt to add some more rice to the mixture as well. Apart from the long prep time (which took far longer than the hour they say), this recipe is great, and I would definately make it again. (we served them with pierogies for an authentic Polish experience!)
