This dinner is everything. Quick, easy, nutritious and cheesy. That’s a win in my book. Oh, and it is a one-pot meal. So no sink full of dirty dishes!

This Easy Stuffed Cabbage Casserole begins with Ground Turkey. I used ground turkey as a healthier alternative to the traditional ground beef. Foster Farms Organic Ground Turkey is a lean source of protein that is perfect for dinner.

Add vegetables, rice and cheese for a well-rounded meal that your family will love!

I love one pot meals. For the obvious reason of less dishes to wash. But also, we are all so busy, especially this time of year. So to be able to feed my family a quick and easy meal that is nutritious too, that is really important.

Stuffed cabbage rolls are one of my favorite meals. My family lineage is mostly Eastern European, so I must be genetically predisposed to love stuffed cabbage! Or, you know, it’s just delicious.

Traditional cabbage rolls can be a bit time consuming. This recipe has all of the great flavors with minimal time and effort involved. Lazy Comfort Food . . . that’s sorta my thang.

    Second time making it! We used grass fed ground beef and since I had some leftover beef broth from another recipe we used half broth half water. Added an orange bell pepper, too! We topped it with sharp white cheddar cheese. Thanks for this great recipe!

    Can you make this ahead to save time??? And put it in the oven to warm it up??
    Let me know, sure would appreciate it.

      I would make everything ahead of time except the rice. The casserole should reheat nicely but the rice might soak up all the moisture. You can always prep the rice when reheating the casserole then add it before serving. Enjoy 🙂

    Thank you great idea. I thought of that but put it all together with the cheese on top and put it in the oven at 350 for about 30 minutes. But I did put a smaller portion in the oven. This is a large casserole.
    Was very good. Thank you so much for the recipe.
    5 stars for me. Thanks again for replying to me as well ????

    Love this! I used super lean ground beef, it’s what I had, and it was quick and delicious, eating it right now. Thanks for a great recipe.

    I used regular white rice and cooked it until almost done before adding the cabbage. I used 3/4 bag of shredded coleslaw mix and added a can of tomato sauce and about 1/3 cup cider vinegar to mimic the cabbage roll taste. . Very healthy and hearty dish.

    This was really wonderful! Made it using ground beef, but everything else was pretty much the same as recipe, and the hubby LOVED it! Had 3 helpings last night! And SO EASY!

    Thank you!

    You could also substitute cous cous or quinoa for the rice, and I think elbow macaroni noodles sound like a fun addition to replace the rice once in a while. The apple cider vinegar sounds like a good addition too. Celery, cilantro, carrots, corn, black beans, or even red kidney beans, think I’ll try this tonight. Thanks for the recipe!

      You can just leave them off or substitute with some chopped red bell pepper.

    I loved this, and so did my family! Quick & easy, only changes I made were to use broth instead of water & real garlic instead of powder. As someone suggested, I also added a shredded carrot. Definitely a keeper in my house!
