Meatball Cabbage Rolls image

My mother often had these cabbage rolls simmering in her slow cooker when my family and I arrived at her house for weekend visits. The mouthwatering meatballs tucked inside made these stand out from any other cabbage rolls I've tried. -Betty Buckmaster, Muskogee, Oklahoma

I've tried other cabbage roll recipes, but this one is by far the best. The meatballs are moist and flavorful, and the cabbage is cooked to perfection.

These cabbage rolls were a bit bland for my taste. I think I'll add some more spices next time.

These cabbage rolls are a great way to use up leftover cabbage. They're also a good freezer meal.

These cabbage rolls had a nice flavor, but the meatballs were a little dry. I'll try adding some more liquid to the meatball mixture next time.

Easy to make and delicious! I used ground turkey instead of beef and it turned out great. The cabbage rolls were a bit messy to eat, but they were worth it.

My family loved these cabbage rolls, a hearty meal that hit the spot on a cold night. I added a bit of diced carrot to the meatball filling for extra flavor and texture, and it was a hit.
