How To Make crock pot cabbage roll casserole

  • Step 3
    Stir in the long grain rice.
  • Step 4
    Add half of the beef mixture to the Crock Pot, followed by half of the chopped cabbage, then the remaining beef mixture, and the remaining cabbage.
  • Step 5
    Cover and cook on low for 4-6 hours or until the rice and cabbage are tender.
  • Step 6
    Sprinkle with cheddar and Monterey Jack cheese, and cover for 10 minutes or until the cheese is melted.
