Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Start by thoroughly washing and chopping your cabbage, onion, and garlic. Slice the cabbage into thin strips, dice the onion, and mince the garlic.
  2. In a large skillet over medium heat, add the lean ground beef along with the diced onion and minced garlic. Cook for about 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the meat is browned and cooked through.
  3. In your slow cooker, combine the browned ground beef mixture with the chopped cabbage, diced tomatoes, tomato sauce, and water. Add Worcestershire sauce, uncooked white rice, and the spices.
  4. Set your slow cooker to low and let your Cabbage Roll Soup simmer for about 8 hours, or on high for 4 hours. Stir the soup occasionally.
  5. Once your Cabbage Roll Soup has finished cooking, taste and adjust the seasoning as needed. Serve it hot.
