PREP TIME: 20 MINS
COOK TIME: 4 HRS
TOTAL TIME: 4 HRS 20 MINS
Servings: 6
Ingredients
- 1 pound lean ground beef
- 1/2 cup chopped onion
- 5 cups coleslaw mix
- 1/2 cup uncooked, converted rice (I used Uncle Ben’s)
- 1/4 cup water
- 2 teaspoons paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon pepper
- 1 can (14 – 15 ounces) Italian-style tomato sauce
Instructions
- Ideal slow cooker size: 4-Quart
- Grease the inside of the slow cooker.
- In a large skillet, cook the beef and onion, stirring occasionally, until the beef is no longer pink. Drain off any grease.
- Scrape the beef and onion mixture into the slow cooker.
- Add the remaining ingredients and stir to combine. (The cooker will be full, but the cabbage will shrink a lot during cooking.)
- Cover and cook on LOW for 4 to 6 hours, or until the cabbage is tender.
Recipe Notes
Next time I’ll bulk up this easy cabbage roll casserole even more with another cup or two of coleslaw mix.
