EASY, SLOW COOKER Cabbage Roll Casserole! This easy recipe is made in the crockpot and ready in 4 hours! This is a Polish family recipe called Halupkie!

Slow Cooker Cabbage Roll Casserole
Cabbage Rolls were a big deal in my house. My Mother is Polish, so the recipe was passed down from generation to generation and ended up being one of my favorite meals she would make. Just like my Stuffed Pepper Casserole, this is another one of Mom’s famous recipes that my family loves! And even better is that this Slow Cooker Cabbage Roll Casserole only takes 4 hours in the Crockpot!

My Mom would add ground beef, rice and tomato sauce into a big piece of cabbage, roll it up, throw it in the fridge overnight to sit and then we would have them for Sunday dinner. Just the smell of cabbage takes me back to my childhood!
This Cabbage Roll Casserole is a direct spin off my Mother’s Halupkies recipe, but we’re making this in casserole form in the slow cooker instead.

Do you have any suggestions on how to convert a raw white rice casserole to crock pot? The original recipe says 1.5 hr or longer to get rice tender and has a 2 to 1 ratio of rice and liquid along with ground beef, onions, celery & peas. I want to take to a pot luck next week. Thank you!!
Cindy says
Could you make it without the worcestershire sauce?
Pamela says
Yes, you can skip it if you’d like.

Husband made this tonight & we LOVED it. I’m in an arm cast & he’s the cook for now. We love cabbage & hamburger dishes. Of the half dozen + we’ve tried, this is by far the best. Needed no tweaking!
Sam Fiolek says
What is the calorie count per cup of these lazy man cabbage rolls in a slow cooker
Kelly says
Very little, cabbage and tomatoes are next to nothing, hamburger has some. I’m diabetic and watch what I eat and I can eat this and not have my sugar spike.
