ingredients
1 pound ground beef, ground pork or combination of the two
1 small onion, chopped
1 egg
1/2 cup rice
salt and pepper, to taste
6 large cabbage leaves
directions
Remove the cabbage leaves from head of cabbage taking care to leave leaf in one piece. Immerse leaves, three at a time in large pot of boiling water about 3 minutes or until leaves are limp. Drain well and let cool a bit so they are easier to handle.
Mix together ground meat, onion, egg, rice and seasonings until well blended. Divide meat into equal parts and form into balls. Place meatball on bottom edge of cabbage leaf and roll up like an egg roll or a burrito.
Place in crock-pot. Continue until you have all meat rolled up in cabbage. Add water to crock pot to barely cover your pigs in the blanket and cook on low for 6-8 hours. Remove pigs in the blanket to serving dish.
Liquids left in crock-pot may be thickened for gravy, if desired.
Notes: You can also add a can of tomato soup to the top.

This iconic whiskey is a "Jack of all trades" when it comes to cooking. Toss it in some pasta, as a savory dipping sauce, and even bake it into something sweet.
Not to be confused with evaporated milk, sweetened condensed milk is very sweet (and very sticky) and used primarily in desserts.

Why do people call these pigs in a blanket? These are cabbage rolls. Anyway, this recipe is good. I hadn't tried one with egg in the beef mixture but it made it more like meatloaf I think which was a good texture.
