  • 1 can of tomato sauce (15 oz)

Equipment

Method

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F.

Recipe Tips

To make the cabbage leaves easier to roll, you can also freeze the head of cabbage overnight and then thaw it before blanching. This will soften the leaves and make them more pliable. It is also important to use a baking dish that is deep enough to hold the cabbage rolls and the tomato sauce. If you don't have a deep dish, you can use two smaller dishes instead.
