Steps:
- 1. Place the cabbage leaves in a large bowl. Add enough boiling water to cover the cabbage. Let stand for 10 minutes. Preheat oven to 375^. Spray a 3 or 4 cup casserole baking dish with no-stick spray,set aside.
- 2. In a large non-stick skillet brown and scramble meat and onions. Add parsnips, carrots and celery; cook 4 minutes , stirring every once in awhile. Remove from heat and stir in the tomato paste, rice, dressing, 3 cups of the tomato sauce and 3/4 cup of the cheese.
- 3. Drain and pat dry the cabbage leaves and cut out the hard vein from each leaf. Pour 1/2 cup of the remaining tomato sauce into the casserole dish. Cover with layers of 1 cabbage leaf and 2 cups rice mixture; repeat layers 3 times. Top with remaining cabbage leaf,remaining sauce and cheese; Cover with foil. Bake 1 hour covered, uncover and bake 10 minutes more. Let stand at least 5 minutes before serving with sour cream on the side.
- 4. Note: if you don't want to use the cabbage leaves you can use the shredded in a bag and just layer it instead of the leaves...I like using this often..
