By ShawnMax
Looking for something new and different for dinner? Try golumpkis! What are golumpkis, you ask? They’re a traditional Polish cabbage roll, with cabbage leaves wrapped around a filling of meat, onions, and rice or barley. Usually, they’re made in a casserole dish, but why would we do that when can make them in our slow cooker?! This version is less of a cabbage roll and more of a casserole, but the strong flavors still shine through. Watch how it’s made and give it a try!

How To

In a blender, add the diced tomatoes, tomato sauce, 1 teaspoon of the salt, brown sugar, garlic, and apple cider vinegar. Blend until smooth.
Pour 1 cup of the blended sauce into the slow cooker. Lay a third of the chopped cabbage in a thin layer on top of the sauce. Evenly spread out half of the meat mixture, top with another third of the cabbage and half the remaining tomato sauce. Season with salt and pepper.
Repeat and layer the remaining meat, cabbage and sauce. Season with salt and pepper, and cover.
