Keto Golabki (Cabbage Rolls) with Tomato Sauce

Ingredients

• 1 large Green Cabbage
• 1 lb Ground Beef
• 1 cup Cauliflower Rice
• 1/2 medium Onion
• 1 Egg
• 2 cloves Garlic
• 28 oz Tomato Sauce
• 1 tbsp Olive Oil
• 1 tsp Dried Marjoram
• 1/2 tsp Salt
• 1/4 tsp Black Pepper

Instructions

1. 1Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Bring a large pot (e.g., 8-quart) of water to a rolling boil over high heat. Carefully remove the outer leaves from the 1 large Green Cabbage and blanch them in the boiling water for 2-3 minutes, until they are pliable; use tongs to transfer them to a plate to cool for at least 10 minutes.
2. 2While the cabbage leaves cool, finely chop the 1/2 medium Onion. In a large mixing bowl, combine the 1 lb Ground Beef, 1 cup Cauliflower Rice, the chopped 1/2 medium Onion, 1 Egg, 2 cloves Garlic (minced), 1 tsp Dried Marjoram, 1/2 tsp Salt, and 1/4 tsp Black Pepper. Mix thoroughly with your hands until all ingredients are evenly distributed.
3. 3Lay one cooled cabbage leaf flat on a clean surface. Place about 2 tablespoons of the meat mixture near the stem end of the leaf, then fold the sides of the leaf inward over the filling. Roll the leaf tightly from the stem end towards the tip to form a compact roll; repeat this process with the remaining cabbage leaves and meat mixture.
4. 4Pour the entire 28 oz Tomato Sauce into a large baking dish (e.g., 9x13 inch). Arrange the prepared cabbage rolls snugly in a single layer over the tomato sauce, placing them seam-side down to prevent unrolling. Drizzle the 1 tbsp Olive Oil evenly over the tops of the cabbage rolls.
5. 5Cover the baking dish tightly with aluminum foil. Bake in the preheated 350°F (175°C) oven for 60 minutes, or until the internal temperature of the ground beef reaches 160°F (71°C) and the cabbage is very tender. Carefully remove the foil and serve the Keto Golabki hot.
