Just sitting here one night and was thinking of making Cabbabge Roll's when I thought of an idea that sounded pretty good. Why not make a casserole instead; so I decided not to add rice; used ground turkey with some vegetables and cheese along with potatoes and soup then topped it off with more cheese and bacon instead of tomato sauce. Came out so good I shared it with my neighbor. We all loved it and I'm sure I'll make this again. Enjoy!
