Ingredients
- 1 head cabbage
- 1.5 lb. ground beef
- 1 clove of garlic (chopped)
- 2 eggs
- 1/2 c of instant rice
- 1 jar of Prego spaghetti sauce
Instructions
- 1. Pull full leaves from the cabbage and boil them until pliable but not falling apart (just about 3 minutes). Set aside to cool.
- 2. In large mixer add ground beef, eggs, instant rice, salt and pepper to taste and garlic clove.
- 3. Take small balls of ground beef (about the size of a serving on your plate (I use the size of my fist), roll it between your hands until a tightly pressed ball.
- 4. Wrap into a cabbage leaf, starting at the softest end of the leaf and roll toward the stem, folding in the sides as you roll. End with a toothpick pushed in through the stem and ground beef to hold in place.
- 5. Set cabbage rolls into large baking pan, pour spaghetti sauce over rolls. Cover with foil and bake for 45 mins. to 1 hour (depending on oven and how many rolls you have in your pan).
- 6. Can sprinkle parmesan cheese on the top for the last few minutes before serving if you choose.

I’ve actually been making these since I was a young girl as they were my grandpa’s favorite meal (only he called them glumpkies). And for the sauce I use tomato soup with a little ketchup mixed in. They are a lot of work, but like you said, sooo worth it. 🙂
I love something similar to that it’s called Galumpkis with Mushroom soup over it!
