The tender cabbage leaves wrapped around a flavorful mixture of hamburger, rice, and onions, all topped with tomato soup and baked to perfection, are sure to become a family favorite.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 large cabbage
  • 1 ½ lbs hamburger
  • 1 cup rice (cooked)
  • 1 onion, minced
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon pepper
  • 1 (10 ½ oz) can Campbell’s tomato soup
  • ½ cup sour cream (for serving)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Cabbage: Remove the outer leaves of the cabbage and boil in salted water until the leaves are flexible and soft.
  2. Cook the Filling: In a skillet, cook the hamburger until browned and crumbled. Add the minced onion to the pan with the butter and sauté until soft. Combine the hamburger, onion, and cooked rice, and season with salt and pepper.
  3. Stuff the Cabbage: Drop a spoonful of the mixture into each cabbage leaf, fold over the sides, and roll them up tightly, similar to how grape leaves are rolled.
  4. Bake: Place the cabbage rolls in a baking pan, pour the tomato soup evenly over the top, and bake at 350°F for 45 minutes.
  5. Serve: Top each cabbage roll with a dollop of sour cream before serving.
