Sweet and Sour Stuffed Cabbage Rolls

This Eastern European comfort food classic is an ideal candidate for a slow cooker. It enables the cabbage to cook to a tender doneness while keeping the filling nice and moist. Instead of brown rice or barley, you could substitute quinoa in this recipe. (For gluten-free, do not use barley.) Similarly, you can use reconstituted TVP or finely chopped seitan instead of the tempeh, if you prefer (but if you use seitan, then it won’t be gluten-free).
