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

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! 

How to Make Cabbage Rolls in Slow Cooker (Video)

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.

Ingredients for Slow Cooker Cabbage Roll Casserole

  • 1 pound raw ground beef
  • 1 medium size head of cabbage chopped
  • 1 medium sized green pepper chopped
  • 1 small onion chopped
  • 1 15 Oz can of diced or stewed tomatoes undrained
  • 2 15 Oz cans of tomato sauce
  • 1 teaspoon minced garlic
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce

How to Make Slow Cooker Cabbage Rolls

All you need to do is add all the ingredients (except the white rice) in the slow cooker and cook on high for 1 hour. Add rice, stir and cook on high for 3 more hours. 

Some people call this recipe “lazy cabbage rolls” but I just call it delicious!  A nice warm bowl of cabbage roll casserole is the perfect dinner for a cold Winter night.

    Making this today! Would it be ok to add sugar or brown sugar for a sweeter taste?

      Absolutely, you can add in 1-2 tablespoons of brown sugar. That will taste great with the tomato sauce. 🙂

          Hey Grace, that would be fine. You can also make the rice separately and serve the cabbage on top. Enjoy!

    This recipe is amazing. I always thought it was so much work to stuff the raw cabbage and then they never held together. Thank you for sharing your great cooking ideas recipes.

    Can you sub beef broth for the bouillon? I don’t have bouillon. How much beef broth?

    Reply
    • Pamela says

      September 23, 2019 at 9:21 pm

      Hey Don, the beef bouillon is powder that mixes with the other wet ingredients. If you can’t get bouillon, I would just leave it out all together as adding broth will be too much liquid.

    Halupkie in the crock pot- this recipe is Amazing! Great flavor! Did not have green pepper so subbed jalapeño, also cooked rice on the side, turned out really really good. So simple & easy. Will definitely add this to the repertoire

    Hi Pamela,

    I was just wondering if you can make this recipe ahead with the raw ingredients or cooked & freeze it?

    Haven’t tried the recipe yet but I will. Sounds great. I have made a unstuffed cabbage recipe in my electric fry pan. I used savoy cabbage. It’s thinner and cooks faster. Think it will work well in this recipe. I also make the rice separately and serve the cabbage over the rice.

    With a surplus of freshly ground sausage and all of the other ingredients on hand, I went ahead and made this dish. I did cook the sausage before throwing it into the crockpot. It was fabulous! This is going into my regular meal rotation.

    I made this with hot italian sausage. I also did not have a can of stewed tomatoes but had the sauce, so I improvised with about a cup of beef broth to make up for the liquid. It was delicious. My husband loved it! For those that are saying the cabbage came out crunchy, try shredding it instead of just chopping it. Thank you so much for this wonderfully simple recipe!
