Spicy Cabbage Rolls - Low Carb

Total Time: 1 hr Preparation Time: 30 mins Cook Time: 30 mins

Ingredients

• Servings: 6
• 1 head cabbage
• 2 tablespoons butter or 2 tablespoons oil
• 1 lb ground beef
• 1 lb breakfast sausage, regular
• 1 large yellow onion, finely chopped
• 1/2 cup chopped cauliflower
• 1/2 cup fresh parmesan cheese, shredded
• 2 eggs
• 2 (14 ounce) cans spaghetti sauce

Recipe

• 1 core cabbage and place in boiling buttered water to soften; meanwhile, mix next 6 ingredients, along with 1/2 cup of the spaghetti sauce.
• 2 remove softened outside leaves from cabbage, and using a sharp knife, remove the stiff center ribs. (i usually remove several leaves at a time, then after those are rolled, i can remove several more.)
• 3 cut the cabbage leaf in half, and place a heaping tablespoon of meat mixture in to roll up, tucking in sides if need be.
• 4 place the roll in a large skillet that has a lid to fit, and continue production until all the meat mixture is used. *leftover cabbage is great as is, or added to a soup, and the broth can be used as veggie stock.
• 5 sometimes a second, smaller pan is necessary to cook up the overflow of rolls.
• 6 cover cabbage rolls with the spaghetti sauce, and cook on medium, covered, for 30 minutes, or until meat is no longer pink.
• 7 sprinkle with shredded parmesan before serving.
• 8 my only problem with this recipe is the sauce is so good, i'm always tempted to get some bread to sop it up! so if you want to indulge, do. :).
