It’s time for Karen’s Killer Fixin’s! Over the years, I’ve filled two 4-inch, 3-ring binders with my own creations as well as recipes my family and friends were willing to share with me. I simply love to cook and want to share that love with my readers.
So every Friday, I share one recipe I think you and your family might enjoy. It might be a main course recipe. A cookie or baked item. Candy. Salads. Whatever strikes my eye and fancy…which today is CABBAGE ROLLS.
I love cabbage rolls, especially during the blustery months! This recipe is fairly simple and easy to make. It will take some serious cooking time though to tenderize the cabbage and marry the flavors, so save this one for a wintry day when you can throw it into the oven in the early afternoon. Once it’s in the oven you can just sit back and read a book or play games with the family while the aromas drive you absolutely nuts until you can break out the knives and forks at dinnertime. 🙂
I hope you enjoy today’s Killer Fixin’s.
Happy eating!
Karen

½ cup water
½ tsp. salt

(Two cabbage leaves if small, just so it’s wrapped all around.) Place seam side down in baking dish. Combine tomato sauce, vinegar, and sugar. Pour over cabbage rolls. Bake, covered with tin foil, at 325 degrees for 3 hours. Baste rolls with sauce.
