Easy Cabbage Roll Casserole

My husband loves cabbage rolls. The other day he told me he wanted to try a cabbage roll casserole. He researched some different recipes and came up with his own version to try. Since I had a client and I always take my clients out to eat, he decided to try it today. He was very pleased with how it turned out.
