Thanks Josie!

It's one of my favorites.

I have made this a couple of times and we really like it. We like it a little hotter so last time I added a can of Rotel tomatoes with green chiles (the original variety) and it was even better.

I'm afraid that addition would totally wreck it for me. I stand by my original recipe. I'm glad you enjoyed your adaptation though.

MrsPolly · 02-24-2004, 06:53 PM

Hey, Josie, I didn't mean to say it was BETTER than your original. We are just pepper bellies! I also think this is one of the best recipes I have made with ground beef, and it is very economical.

Thanks,

Polly

No offense taken.

That is what it is all about....making things that you enjoy. I'm glad you made it work for you.

MMMMM, this sounds good - will have to put cabbage on my shopping list!

CarolynF · 02-09-2011, 03:26 PM

Me, too..

Question? Do the eggs form a little crust?

Ohhh, I don't know ...This thread is 7 years old, so I don't know if the poster is still here at LCF. I hope so though...

P.S. ...just checked and it seems that NorthernNisse is still posting here. Maybe we should PM and ask her.

I tried that recipe many years ago and for some reason I only gave it 2 stars. I have no idea why because the ingredients all sound great. I must not have had my digital camera back then because there's no photo. It was like a crustless quiche.

I was inspired by the recipe to create my Cabbage Roll Pie, so maybe it looked a bit like this:
