Donald,
I appreciate you writing the recipe.
Reminds me of "unstuffed" or "deconstructed"
cabbage roll casserole.
I think It's like you describe with the addition
of the meat sauce that would be in cabbage rolls.
Then you can layer the cabbage and meat sauce.
I thought TX had rain with these showers
coming from the West.
My brother in Dallas said they had rain
when Houston had tornadoes before
the storm moved through NOLA.
My mom in ArkLaTex had 5 inches of rain
and wind that littered yard with pine straw,
just after she and my brother had 10 bags of straw!
I didn't have thoughts of cooking today,
though now it may be cabbage casserole!
@MISSINGROSIE makes unstuffed cabbage soup.
Rosie, is it like the unstuffed cabbage casserole,
except cooked in pot like a soup?
