Slow Cook: Swedish Cabbage Rolls

There is a common misconception that the only thing that can be cooked in a crockpot is soup. Welcome to the world of hands-off cooking. Sometimes you feel like having a warm home-cooked meal but working the classic 9-5 day doesn’t make that possible, unless you want to eat at 10 PM. Not only does leaving your crock-pot on all day ensure that you have a finished meal waiting for you when you get home, but it also gives the dish time for the spices to mature and absorb.

Swedish cabbage rolls are an excellent complete meal to make for the whole family and leftovers can easily be reheated for future meals. 

Traditionally the recipe calls for ground beef but you can easily use a meat substitute such as Bob’s Mill Textured Vegetable Protein or Seitan Chorizo.  All of the ingredients for this dish are fairly inexpensive and truly delicious.
