Cabbage Roll Soup

Cabbage rolls are so darn good but they can take so much work and time to make. I considered taking the time to make some traditional baked cabbage rolls this past weekend but I realized I did not care to spend so much time in the kitchen. We recently moved to a new home that has kept me so busy. So quick easy recipes are what I have been making in my new kitchen. This Easy Cabbage Roll Soup can be made in very little time so it is perfect for busy weeknights.

A traditional cabbage roll includes ground beef (some add in ground pork too), rice, tomatoes and sauce, carrots, onions, and of course, cabbage. They require quite a bit of effort to make. I do not make them very often because of the time involved.  You can think of this Easy Cabbage Roll Soup as an unstuffed cabbage roll. All of those flavors we love in cabbage rolls in soup form. Perfect in my opinion.

You will find my recipe for Cabbage Roll Soup was so very easy to make. I chopped my cabbage, carrots, and onions and had my soup cooking in just a few minutes time. I served the soup with a loaf of fresh baked bread that I grabbed from the grocery store.  A tasty dinner that did not take me all day long to make.

I kept our Easy Cabbage Roll Soup a bit thick. If you prefer to have yours with a bit more liquid, go ahead and add in some additional beef broth. If you want to add in ground sausage, go ahead and add it in for some additional flavor. You could do 50% pork and 50% beef. I didn’t have any ground pork on hand so I used beef. I also did not have any regular white rice on hand. I used some Minute Rice that I had left over from my Cheesy Chicken Rice Casserole so I used it. Minute Rice just cooks quicker and no need to worry about it not getting cooked quickly. Feel free to use your favorite rice. Just be sure to not overcook your Unstuffed Cabbage Soup. Your rice will become very mushy if you allow it to cook for too long.

If you are now ready to make Cabbage Roll Soup, grab your ground meat, cabbage, carrots, onions, rice, diced tomatoes, beef broth, and some tomato sauce. Additionally, you will need some simple ingredients that you most likely have on hand.  With a little bit of slicing and dicing, you can have this soup on the stovetop in no time at all.

      Hi Carol! This pot fed 7 from my family (large bowl each and a few had small portion seconds). We had bread on the side. If you have a smaller family you will most likely have leftovers.I hope that helps.

    Looks good, in the picture it shows petite diced tomatoes but in the directions it states tomato sauce. Which is correct?

      Hi Kathy! Thanks much for catching that mistake. You will use both in this recipe (sauce and diced). Fixing it now.
