Recipe Tips
i) If you don't have an ovenproof skillet or frying pan, you can transfer the meat and cabbage mixture to a baking dish and top with the sauce and cheese before baking it in the oven.
ii) If you want a more traditional lasagne, you can boil whole cabbage leaves and use them instead of pasta—layering the cabbage, meat mixture, and cream sauce.
iii) Serve with a crisp green salad.

What is a Skillet?
The term skillet is used interchangeably with frying pan or fry-pan. More traditionally, however, it refers to a specific type of frying pan, with a flat bottom and flared sides that are relatively low in relation to overall diameter and that curve upwards gradually from the bottom. Old-fashioned cast iron skillets, which are still popular because of their cooking characteristics, generally have sides that gradually slope outwards but do not curve directly up from the bottom.

That looks great, and I love making it in a skillet. It's more manageable than a giant one. Happy new week.

Wow...that looks great. Course anything with cheese is good. I have an aunt will not/never eats cheese. That cuts a lot of things out. I would for sure give that meal a try.

I might like this with turkey, but I would prefer extra cheese instead. It reminds me of the times I made this with meat. It looks delicious.

This looks really good, but unfortunately my husband is not a fan of cabbage so it's not likely that I would try this one, We have made veggie lasagna using zucchini which he does enjoy. The trick is slicing the zucchini very thin so we are thankful for a mandolin.

Lorrie said...

This looks delicious. I don't have any cabbage in the fridge. I popped over to the link and saw the one with zucchini, so I'll be trying that this evening. Thanks!
