A super easy and fast way to have the flavors of cabbage rolls for dinner tonight. 

Instant Pot Cabbage Roll Casserole

beef

onion

salt

¼ tsp pepper

garlic powder

cabbage

white rice

beef broth

(14.5 oz) can petite diced tomatoes

tomato sauce

oz grated medium or sharp cheddar cheese

Salt and pepper

Turn your Instant Pot to the saute setting. When the display says HOT add in the ground beef and break it up. Add in the onion, salt, pepper and garlic powder. Brown the beef for about 5 minutes. Drain off any excess grease. Turn off the saute setting. Scrape off the bottom of the Instant Pot with a wooden spoon. Add in half the broth.

Layer the cabbage on top of the beef. Then sprinkle the rice on top of the cabbage. Pour the rest of the broth over the top of the rice. Then dump the tomatoes and tomato sauce evenly over the top of the rice. 

Cover the Instant Pot and secure the lid. Make sure the valve is set to sealing. Set the manual/pressure cook button to 8 minutes. When the time is up let the pot sit for 10 minutes and then move the valve to venting. Remove the lid. 

Stir in the cheddar and salt and pepper to taste. 

One of my favorites!  I sometimes use a Spanish rice mix to spice it up a little...  have fixed it in my pressure cooker several times.

Hi Karen about how much of a medium cabbage would be used to get 6 cups? (Whole, half, quarter) Thank you.

I wonder if It would be good to freeze the leftovers? Not everyone in my picky fam would eat this but I would!!

I made this last night, and gosh, what a hit this was!  I halved the recipe for 2 very generous servings, but was nervous about using my 3 quart IP, as it is the only unit of my 3 sized IP's, that constantly gives me the burn code.  I opted to do my first "pot in pot" cook, and used my 8 quart IP for that. Worked like a charm. Ever the envelope pusher I am thinking of trying 2 tweaks for my next iteration of this wonderful and comforting meal.  I'm thinking of amping the tomato flavor with the addition of some tomato paste, and  raisins stirred into the meat mixture.

I made this today.  We loved it.
We ate it during the game.
I didn't have diced tomatoes, so substitued stewed tomatoes. 
Very good.

I had bought a head of cabbage a few weeks ago to make cole slaw and had  forgotten all about it until I got your recipe for this emailed to me and thought hmmm I’ve got the cabbage i might as well make this.
Boy am I glad I did I !
I made this exactly as per yours and it was absolutely amazing!! I would not change a thing and will make this again and again!
Thank you for sharing with us !

Had really good flavor.  The cabbage was a bit overcooked because I had cut it smaller than indicated.  Will do it as written next time.  Will also add a bit of worcestershire sauce and a bit of brown sugar.

I have never had stuffed cabbage rolls. After trying this recipe, I definitely have been missing out!  Both my husband and I loved it!  I was out of tomato sauce, so I used approximately 4 oz of tomato paste and added the same amount of water  I also switched the rice to brown rice, adding a bit more water and extending the natural release time by another 10 minutes. We will be eating this again!  And again!  And again!

If the recipe is yours I would never hesitate to try it!
You are an amazing woman!
Thank you 😁

Wow! Thank you!  So I’ve had my IP for 2 yrs and used it maybe 4 times.  My IP is more complicated than what I’ve seen on recipe sites and I am intimidated by it! Twice it yelled at me “BURN”.  I call it the Devil’s Spawn! I am determined to get over my fear and try to use it again.  Well, you’ve made a believer out of me for sure and I have signed up for your emails.  Thank you!🤗

I  made this this morning and it is awesome.  I read all the comments first and made a couple additions. I used V-8 juice instead of beef broth but I did add 2 tsp of Better than Bullion  beef. I also added a tblsp of Worcester sauce, a tsp liquid smoke, and 2 tsp of smoked paprika. I used a whole head of cabbage. This is going go be a regular at Our table.

So good! I used instant brown rice with 1/2 cup more of broth, used diced tomatoes instead because that's what I had, and cooked it for 12 minutes! Thank you!!!

Just made a double size batch of this in the 8 quart Duo. Used 1 lb ground beef and 1 lb ground pork and doubled everything else, DELICIOUS!!

I tried this almost as is....

When I make cabbage rolls I saute the onion with bacon, so I added 3 strips of bacon diced. If I make this again, I will probably double that.

I added some thyme, because I add thyme when I make cabbage rolls.

I used real garlic instead of garlic powder. 

No cheese. I just can't do that to cabbage rolls.

I feel like the sauce was missing some acidity. If I make this again, I might use tomato juice instead of beef broth. And I will definitely add a bay leaf or two, though I'm going to dread digging them out. Not bad...but kind of ...American tasting.

I am making this recipe exactly as is for the second time tonight!  I love it! Really does remind me of my mom’s cabbage rolls!  Thank you, Karen!!

OMG.  This is amazing.  Like really amazing.  I just made this, followed the instructions as written.  Absolutely delicious.  I believe it's key to deglaze the meat bits off the bottom before pressure cooking as I have been a victim of the BURN notice in the past.    I might even add, the flavor in this recipe enhances the stuffed cabbage taste because you get more cabbage per bite, which in my opinion is the star of stuffed cabbage.    Next time, I might add a bit more tomato sauce for color purpose and to loosen up the consistency, but the recipe is just fine as written!!!!   Thanks for sharing!

So good! One of my new favorite comfort foods.

This was excellent. I’ve made stuffed cabbage rolls for years. This has the same tastes but less time and work. Didn’t have tomato sauce so I used ketchup. Great taste. I like the idea to add Worcestershire sauce. Will add it next time. Thanks for a great make again recipe.

Really wonderful with smoked sausage also.

Hello Karen
I made Instant Pot Cabbage Roll Casserole for dinner tonight...with ground pork....
My daughter and I loved it, my husband a little less ...
He prefers cigars to the traditional choice.
I will make your other recipe. I already made cabbage soup with Rotel tomatoes, we liked it.
These are comforting autumn dishes!
Thank you Karen.

Did this tonight! Oh, my goodness.  Was amazing.  Followed your recipe to the T, but added 1 T. Worcestershire sauce.  My husband is a PIG for this stuff now. I made traditional cabbage rolls ONE time, was the biggest mess &amp; took me all day. This casserole tasted way better &amp; took no time at all!  Thank you SO much for making all these wonderful EZ, delicious recipes. There's always enough for me to take some up the road to hubby's parents. They love you too.

First time making this and boy it tastes great! The only change I made was the type and amount of cheese but, I'm a cheese fanatic so that may not be appetizing to everyone. Thanks for the recipe! I'll definitely be making it again!

This sounds great.  I was thinking of cooking regular brown rice with the cabbage and onion first then following the recipe.  Do you think that would work?  Otherwise, I saw your advice to cook for 22 min and then let the pot sit for 10 min afterwards.

I sautéed regular long grain brown rice with the meat &amp; onions, then cooked as directed.  I was afraid the rice would stick because I didn't layer it, but it cam out perfect!  Thanks for the recipe.

Made this for dinner tonight, very good and easy. All the flavors of stuffed cabbage with hardly any work! Thank you for another easy, fast, great recipe.

I used to make a similar recipe as a casserole in the oven. Since my IP is so amazing, I thought I would try this. It turned out very bland. Once finished cooking, I had to add more Worcestershire sauce, more balsamic vinegar, more tomato paste, more salt, more pepper, and also cooked a cup of rice on my stovetop to add to it because it was more liquid-y than I expected. After all of the additions it was fine. I'll just have to remember to double all of the seasonings.

I made this reciepe to the letter, but I added a bit of Worchester Sauce. It came out fanyptastic and I wouldn’t change a thing. This recipe is a keeper. Thanksso much!

Made this recipe and LOVED IT!! I love cabbage rolls but HATE making them. This recipe is a keeper!! So so good! Thanks for all the great recipes!!

We had this for dinner a few nights ago. My husband doesn't like cabbage rolls but liked this. He went back for seconds and told me I could make it again.
