How to Make Keto Stuffed Cabbage Rolls
Start by gently boiling the cabbage leaves until they are soft and flexible. This makes them easy to roll without tearing. Set them aside to cool.
In a bowl, mix the ground meat, cauliflower rice, egg, garlic, cheese, and seasonings until well combined. This mixture is juicy, flavorful, and holds together perfectly.
Place a spoonful of the filling onto each cabbage leaf, roll tightly, and place seam-side down in a baking dish. Pour the sugar-free tomato sauce over the rolls, cover with foil, and bake until tender and bubbly.
The result? Melt-in-your-mouth cabbage rolls with bold flavor and zero unnecessary carbs.
