Mat says they were delicious:
I cooked the leftover cabbage with some extra sauce and it turned out amazing in a sloppy joe, here's a bowl of just cabbage and sauce:
I love stuffed cabbage and used to make it all the time before we had kids. My kids were convinced they'd love it too. They begged me to make it for them. I had my doubts that they'd be fans, but I was still game to give it a try. So I made it -- and they wouldn't touch it. Somehow they hadn't realized that stuffed cabbage would involve CABBAGE. Sigh.
