Try these tasty vegetarian cabbage rolls filled with zucchini and rice for a satisfying dinner option!
Ingredients:
  • 1 large head green cabbage (about 2 pounds)
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • 1 medium onion, chopped (1/2 cup)
  • 1 medium zucchini, diced (1 cup)
  • 1 cup cooked white rice
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper
  • 1 teaspoon dried basil leaves
  • 1/2 teaspoon caraway seed
  • 1 bottle (12 ounces) chili sauce
  • 1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese (4 ounces)
  • 1/4 cup dry white wine or vegetable broth
Instructions:
  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Grease a 11x7x1 1/2-inch rectangular baking dish with cooking spray. Rinse a cabbage head under running water and carefully detach 8 leaves. Place leaves in boiling water, cover, and let sit for about 10 minutes until soft; then drain.
  • In a 3-quart saucepan, heat oil over medium heat. Sauté onion and zucchini for 3 minutes until crisp-tender. Add rice, salt, pepper, basil, caraway seed, half of the chili sauce, and 2/3 cup of cheese.
  • Take a generous 1/4 cup of rice mixture and position it at the stem end of each leaf. Wrap the leaf around the rice, ensuring the sides are tucked in. Arrange the rolls seam side down in a dish and sprinkle with wine.
  • Cover and bake for 30 minutes. Then generously spoon the leftover chili sauce over the rolls and sprinkle the remaining 1/3 cup of cheese on top. Continue baking uncovered for about 5 minutes, or until the cheese is beautifully melted.
