This Crock Pot Cabbage Roll Soup is a twist on traditional Cabbage Rolls, for a fraction of the work. With ground beef, cabbage, onion and vegetables; simmered in a rich tomato sauce in your slow cooker.

Slow Cooker Cabbage Roll Soup

I love my Lazy Cabbage Rolls recipe, which is a deconstructed version of the original.

Saving time to get the classic flavour, it’s why I love to make One-Pot Lasagna Soup or Slow Cooker Easy Lasagna. Much less work and time than making the traditional variety.

Cabbage rolls are one of those meals that could be a lunch or filling dinner. Yet the downside is that they take so much time to prep and cook. I hate spending more time making a dinner than enjoying it.

This is why I love this Slow Cooker Cabbage Roll Soup recipe. You get all the flavour but it’s not as time consuming to make. Being a slow cooker meal, it’s a no-fuss meal that is ready when you are.

Plus this soup warms your belly and soul, a true comforting meal.

Crock Pot Cabbage Roll Soup Ingredients

This cabbage roll soup recipe has cabbage and ground beef, and several servings of vegetables. It has a tomato based broth, and the perfect blend of spices. Everything together gives this soup it’s amazing taste.

What to Serve with Cabbage Roll Soup

Since this soup is so filling, I like to think of it as a main course dinner. Yet, smaller servings would make it great for lunch. Even smaller yet and it’s a great appetizer or wonderful to bring to a potluck.

I suggest serving this soup with these Easy Baking Powder Biscuits, a simple yet perfect side. And great for dipping!

How Long is Cabbage Roll Soup Good For?

Once completely prepared, this soup can last in a sealed container, in the refrigerator for three to four days.

If you want it at a later date, I suggest freezing some in between. I talk about how to freeze this soup below.

Can you Freeze Cabbage Roll Soup?

Yes, you can! Soups are great for freezing for another dinner much like this Slow Cooker Butter Chicken. Both as a whole or in individual-sized portions too.

I’d make sure not to overcook the rice, no matter if you’re enjoying it now or later though. Mushy rice just isn’t preferred.

I like to freeze some of this soup, for those days when you need a quick meal. I defrost in the fridge the night before and re-heat in a pot on the stove. You can do the same with this Tomato Vegetable Hamburger Soup.

This Cabbage Roll Soup is one of my family favourite meals, and a regular in our rotation. Comforting, hearty and warm – enjoy this recipe as we certainly do!

    I don’t like cabbage at all but the rest looks delicious, perhaps I could substitute something else instead – suggestions welcome. Cauliflower and broccoli both would go to mush I suspect.

      Try using Napa cabbage. Itโ€™s sweeter and not thick.
      I use it for cabbage soup. That is the cabbage I used for this soup.

    However, why use minute rice? Couldnโ€™t regular basmati rice go in maybe 1 hr before eating?
    And are the liquids all added at the beginning?

      Hi Paula,
      I know, and sadly it’s the Nutritionix caculator that messes this up in the recipe card itself. They don’t support the counting of carbs or sugar alcohols, so instead of saying that – they say 0. I’ve put in a request to the developer to fix that so hopefully soon! ๐Ÿ™

      We have 900ml packages of this here, and I just use 3/4 of the package. If your packages are slightly different, adjust. Yet, being off 50ml here or there won’t make a difference. ๐Ÿ™‚

    Making this today and it smells delicious! My only concern is the recipe called for 3/4 cup broth. I put 1 cup broth in and as I check on it it isnโ€™t very โ€œsoupyโ€. Am I doing something wrong?

      Hello! I have found that when slow cooking, all recipes get more ‘liquidy’ as time goes on. Cooking, plus the steam. In the end ours turned out great. Curious to see your result! ๐Ÿ™‚

    So like everybody SHOULD be we are safe distancing shut in away from the virus. Looking for new supper choices. This was a good recipe. I didnโ€™t have any tomato paste so I used a large can of tomato sauce. Put bit more Italian seasoning and you know what just remembered forgot to put garlic in. Still good. Nice and thick. We had it with bisquick. Biscuits and some cheese and the extra cut up cabbage made for coleslaw. All was good. Try it. Stay safe people and stay home.

    I made this and it came out great. My husband loved it so much he made me print it out, even though I pinned it on Pinterest. Also, it said 3/4 of 900 ml broth. The conversion was a bit tricky, I used the whole container of broth because I don’t have a measuring cup with ml (which is 32 oz here) and was still good. Nice balance of flavors!

    Tastes pretty good! Definitely not a soup though… I followed it exact minus the green beans and used brown rice instead of white and itโ€™s very thick, hardly any liquid at all.

      Perhaps cooking temp difference with crockpots? I definitely suggest checking consistency about an hour before serving and add more liquid if needed.

    Made this yesterday and the family loved it. Didn’t have tomato paste or minute rice, so I subbed tomato sauce and about a cup and half of rice that was leftover from the night before. Since the rice was already cooked, I added it just before serving, and that worked out fine.

    I plan to add some carrot to it next time….

    As written, the recipe pretty much filled my crockpot – – – 6-8 GENEROUS servings, 10-12 for lighter eaters.
