Lazy Cabbage Casserole

This casserole is full of nutritious veggies, hearty meat and satisfying flavors. Basically it is like cabbage rolls but with much less effort.

The great thing about Cabbage Casserole is that it is full of nutritious vegetables. We are using Earthbound Farm Organic Cauliflower Medley riced veggies as the base instead of traditional rice. I am loving this Cauliflower Medley, it adds more flavor and texture than plain riced cauliflower. With cauliflower, carrots, broccoli and onions this Earthbound Farm Organic Cauliflower Medley riced veggies has the vegetable portion of the meal covered!

Plus we are (obviously) adding cabbage, tomato and more onion. And because we like to Go Big Or Go Home, let’s add even more veggies with Earthbound Farm Baby Spinach.

Truth be told I add baby spinach to just about everything possible. That is how I make sure to use up every last bit of greens I have in my fridge. Making mac and cheese . . . add spinach. Soup . . . add spinach. Casserole for dinner . . . add spinach. Eggs . . . add spinach. You catch my drift.

So while traditional cabbage rolls don’t include spinach, mine do . . . because, Just Add Spinach!
