Crock-Pot Cabbage Wraps

This was pretty easy to make and surprisingly delicious. I took the leftovers to my Dad and Mom's and Dad finished them off. Even most of my kids liked them which is hard to do.

Ingredients:

1 cabbage
1 pound ground turkey
1/4 cup uncooked brown rice
1 egg
1 finely chopped onion
1 finely chopped carrot
1/2 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. pepper
1/4 cup cider vinegar
1/2 cup brown sugar
1 can tomato sauce (8 oz)
Toothpicks

Directions:

Drop whole cabbage into boiling water and simmer for 5 - 10 minutes. Cool.

In the meantime, mix ground turkey, rice, egg, onion, carrot, salt and pepper in a bowl. In another bowl, mix vinegar, brown sugar and tomato sauce.

When cabbage is cooled enough to handle, remove 12-14 large leaves. Chop up the remaining cabbage and place in the bottom of crockpot. Place approximately 2 tablespoons of meat mixture in the center of each cabbage leaf. Wrap up envelope style and secure with a toothpick. Place in crockpot. Pour sauce mixture over all.

Cook on low setting for 8-10 hours.
