STUFFED CABBAGE ROLLS -0- WW Blue points

STUFFED CABBAGE -0- WW blue POINTS
I made this easy stuffed cabbage with ground turkey breast 99% fat free. I made it with my Instant Pot, so much easier but you could use a Crock Pot it just cooks a lot longer. Here's the recipe that goes with the YouTube video (you will see a couple of corrections in brackets). Its only -0- Blue WW points and so tasty and filling.
INGREDIENTS:
1 HEAD OF CABBAGE
1 POUND OF 99% FAT FREE GROUND TURKEY
1 EGG
1 ONION (finely diced) (optional)
1 PKG OF STEAM-ABLE CAULIFLOWER RICE
1/2 TSP SALT
1/2 TSP PEPPER
1 TBSP MINCED GARLIC
1 TSP GROUND RED PEPPER (OPTIONAL)
1 32 OZ CAN OF CRUSHED TOMATOES WITH OREGANO, BASIL, IN RICH PUREE (this will be the sauce, make sure you scan the brand, I found one for -0- points which is S&W brand at Walmart and then I scanned another brand and it was 1 pt, so scanning helps keep the points low).
YOU CAN FIND THE PRINTABLE RECIPE ON MY WEBSITE:
amusinghealthyrecipe.com. On the home page click on the box: Printable Recipes, go to the Main Dishes Recipes and tap on Stuffed Cabbage Rolls.
INSTRUCTIONS:
First of all, you need to lightly steam the cabbage to soften the leaves. You can do this on the stove, but the easiest way is to put it in the Instant Pot on Pressure, set manual to 1 minute. Do a quick release, take out and let it cool. You can work on the filling while all of this is being done.
A. TAKE THE COOLED CABBAGE AND CARVE OUT THE HARD CORE ON THE BOTTOM AND REMOVE, ONLY CARVE ABOUT AN INCH. CAREFULLY PEEL THE LEAVES OFF AND SET ASIDE ON A PLATTER.
B. COOK THE CAULIFLOWER RICE IN THE MICROWAVABLE STEAM-ABLE BAG FOR 5 MINUTES. COOL A LITTLE. IN A MEDIUM SIZE BOWL MIX, THE GROUND TURKEY, EGG, ONION (finely diced) AND SPICES TOGETHER AND THE CAULIFLOWER RICE. YOU CAN USE A LARGE SPOON OR EVEN BETTER, USE YOUR HANDS BUT MAKE SURE YOU WASH THEM BEFORE AND AFTER. (put the finely diced onion directly in with the meat mixture instead of in the sauce like I did on the video, this method is better and easier).
C. TAKE AN ICE CREAM SCOOPER (about 2 tbsp) AND SCOOP OUT THE MEAT MIXTURE AND ROLL IT UP INTO A CABBAGE LEAF (SEE VIDEO). CONTINUE UNTIL ALL THE MEAT MIXTURE IS FINISHED.
D. PUT AROUND 1/3 OF THE CRUSHED TOMATOES IN THE BOTTOM OF THE INSTANT POT. ADD THE CABBAGE ROLLS, LAYERING THE SAUCE IN BETWEEN. I showed this a different way on the video and had lots of extra watery sauce. I realized afterwards that this works so much better, you don't need to add the water to the Instant Pot before adding the cabbage rolls, there's plenty of sauce, also you don't need to add a trivet or mesh strainer.)
E. SET THE INSTANT POT TO PRESSURE, SET THE TIME TO 10 MINUTES. AFTERWARDS, ALLOW A NATURAL RELEASE FOR 10 MINUTES.
