Deconstructed Cabbage Roll Casserole is a 30 minute meal that takes the great flavors of cabbage rolls and turns it up a notch and makes it super easy to make.
A few years ago I tried making cabbage rolls. The Hardworking Husband loved them. I hated them. And I never made them again. Then the other night I was looking for a 30 minute meal to make for dinner that had ingredients I already had. Pinterest to the rescue. I found a cabbage roll casserole recipe. As I was making it, I wasn’t sure I would like it. But I knew The Hardworking Husband would. And that’s all that matters, right? I ended up loving it. And of course, I had to change it up a little. And it has become deconstructed cabbage roll casserole.
Earlier this week, I wrote about How to Grow Cabbage. This recipe is perfect for heads of cabbage straight out of the garden. I had to buy my heads of cabbage for now because my cabbage heads are just beginning to form. But you better believe that I will be making this once my cabbages are ready.
