1 can (16 oz) stewed tomatoes or 3 med. Fresh tomatoes peeled and

I'll bet there is a "heartwarming" recipe that includes "add a packet of
onion soup mix"...

Why? Don't you have a can opener?

I'm just (sarcastically) trying to help out with her little business.
She is posting here to get hits to her commercial, ad-bearing website
to produce a little income. But the recipes she posts are, imho, below
the average level for rfc, most of whose participants know how to make
a white sauce. So my suggestion to her is that she step up her
"creations" to something beyond opening _two_ cans of condensed soup,
or _stewed_ tomatoes plus diced tomatoes. As it is, I doubt she's
generating much traffic. -aem

Perhaps it would go over better without sarcasm. Remember, too, that there
actually are some decent recipes that use canned ingredients. You may not
personally like them, but a lot of other people do.

How can it be a cabbage roll if the cabbage is chopped up?

It's a cabbage roll *casserole*. I make this all the time, 'though not
the same recipe as the OP.

Mine is based on my family cabbage roll recipe. It's just easier because
you don't have to blanche the cabbage, roll it up, etc. You can do the
same thing with your personal family cabbage roll recipe. Here it is.
There is a can of tomato sauce involved. I hope this won't be a
problem. :-)

Chop most of a medium cabbage into 1" pieces, and put into a large
casserole dish or roasting pan. (I use a 9-liter cast iron dutch oven.)

Mix a pound of *RAW* ground beef with about a cup of cooked rice and a
teaspoon of salt. Spread this mixture over the cabbage.

Saute a couple of diced onions with 4-5 slices of diced bacon. Add a
couple of tablespoons of paprika. When cooked, spread this over the
ground beef.

Mix a small can (12 oz?) of tomato sauce with about 1/4 cup lemon juice
and 1/2 cup brown sugar. Pour this over the top of everything.

Cook at low heat (250 - 275) for at least two hours. Three hours is better.

Makes 6 servings.

Canned tomatoes are usually better than fresh ones for this sort of
thing according to my tame gourmets.

Hell, then, just call it a beef and cabbage casserole and be done with
it. Semantics and context stink!

Exactly!!! You know how I am about these things, Wayne. :-0) Don't

either. "-)

LOL! 'deed I do, Barb. Er, that would be 'tater lasagna'! :-) Which
reminds me, I really need to make some pierogi soon. I have such a
taste for them.

I make egg roll filling sometimes and stop there. No rolls. I don't want
to call it "egg roll filling." So I call it "unrolled egg rolls."

How 'bout "Cabbage Hotdish" for this one? <G>

After a huge chocolate chip cookie making spree in high school, a
girlfriend and I ran out of chocolate chips. We didn't drive, didn't
have any money, so we made them without chocolate chips. No Chocolate
Chip Cookies.

Actually, I usually just call it "Cabbage Casserole." DH likes it no
matter what I call it.
