Comfort Cabbage Casserole image

A close friend used to make stuffed cabbage for our families and we all loved it. She always said she was going to show me how she did it but she passed away before we ever found the time. I remembered how it tasted but lacked the patience to actually stuff cabbage so I came up with an easier version.
