I love the Scandinavian preparation called Kaldolmar

"Kĺldolmar are Swedish cabbage rolls filled with minced pork meat, and in some cases rice. They are usually eaten with boiled potatoes, gravy and lingonberry jam. Kĺldolmar are also popular in Denmark and in Finland, where they are known in Finnish as kaalikääryle (plural kaalikääryleet)."

I make this about once a year and serve it with mashed potatoes or boiled potatoes. The recipe is from Scandia Restaurant, a legendary Scandinavian restaurant in Los Angeles. Sadly, Scandia closed many years ago, but I still have the recipe, which was included in the Vincent Price Cookbook.

If you really want to be lazy, do what my sister (and I) have done. Just quarter the heads, and freeze. Yes, whole just like that. No blanching, no cooking. Now, it isn't great defrosted, but, next time you may corned beef and cabbage, take out the frozen quarters and at it to your baking corned beef for the last 45 minutes to an hour. It's great. fabulous texture and no work involved.

Chop one head of cabbage.
Saute 1 lb hamburger or ground turkey with onion and add to cabbage.
Top with one can tomato soup. Bake 350 for one hour. Salt and pepper of course.

Simple cabbage cassarole but I like to add mushrooms and water chestnuts and then top with some sour cream when it's ready.

There are also recipes online where you can use it as a side dish...generally it's some version with cheese and cream like this.

My mother used to just cook it and then put butter and cream on it...yum.

How about a wedge with bacon, sausage or ham, garlic, onion and anything else you want to add. Wrap in foil and cook on the grill.^

Whilst I hesitate to be harshly critical of your culinary choices (and have dined in many Navy wardrooms and roadside cafes using methods much like your'n), were I to be given the choice of your cabbage concoction and dining on WWII era C Rations straight from the can on a sun-blasted dusty hill side on a torrid day, I'd take the C-rats.....
