Crock Pot Stuffed Cabbage Rolls
Slow cooker recipes for toddlers are hard to find because of their lack of ability to eat anything with too much flavor.
This crock pot stuffed cabbage rolls recipe is perfect for them because it is flavorful without being too spicy.
The dish is also easy to prepare, and the cabbage leaves give it a nice, soft texture.
I like to serve this dish on special occasions, such as when the family is over for dinner.
You can also add other ingredients to the dish, such as carrots or potatoes.
Can You Put Raw Ground Beef in A Slow Cooker?
There are some things that you shouldn’t put in a slow cooker, and raw ground beef is one of them.
Ground beef needs to be cooked to an internal temperature of 160 degrees Fahrenheit to ensure that all harmful bacteria are killed.
If you put raw ground beef in a slow cooker, it may not reach this temperature, leading to food poisoning.
Cook the beef before adding it to the slow cooker, or opt for another protein that doesn’t need to be cooked through.
What Can I Make with Hamburger in Crock-Pot?

One popular option is to make a hamburger stew.
This is a simple dish that only requires a few ingredients and can be made in a Crock-Pot.

This is a hearty dish that is perfect for a winter night.
