Instant Pot Cabbage Roll Soup
I must admit that I didn’t think cabbage roll soup would be that good. I was convinced that the cabbage would be smelly (I’m picturing the cabbage soup diet) and that it wouldn’t be flavorful or satisfying. I am so glad that I was DEAD WRONG. This soup was satisfying, flavorful, and very appetizing. The cabbage was my favorite part of this soup. It was the perfect texture. Next time I’ll add in a bit more!
I also must admit that I’ve never had cabbage rolls in my life. At least that I can remember. Now I’m totally tempted to try them in the Instant Pot. I LOVED the combination of flavors in this recipe. My daughter, son, son’s friend and husband all did too. This recipe is a keeper for sure. Add the ingredients to your shopping list and try it this week!

What Pressure Cooker Did You Use?
To make Instant Pot Cabbage Roll Soup I used my 6 quart Instant Pot Duo 60 7 in 1*. I love this Instant Pot because it has the yogurt making function which I use almost weekly. It has two pressure settings (high and low), and there are also little slots in the handles so that you can rest the lid there instead of putting it down on your counter-top.

Description
An easy way to enjoy all the flavors of cabbage rolls. This soup will be your family’s new favorite!
Ingredients
- 1 to 1 1/2 pounds ground beef (depending on how meaty you like it, I used 1.3 pounds)
- 1 cup diced onion
- 2 Tbsp Worcestershire sauce
- 1 tsp smoked paprika
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
- 6–7 cups beef broth (6 for a thicker soup, 7 for a thinner soup)
- 1 (14.5 oz) can fire-roasted diced tomatoes
- 1 (8 oz) can tomato sauce
- 2 Tbsp tomato paste
- 1/4 tsp allspice
- 2/3 cup long grain white rice, uncooked
- 5–6 cups cabbage (8–10 ounces), cut into 1/2 inch strips
Instructions
- Turn your Instant Pot to the saute setting. When the display says HOT add in the ground beef and break it up*. Brown for about 5 minutes and then drain off any excess grease and discard. Add in the onion, Worcestershire, paprika, garlic powder, salt and pepper. Cook the onion for about 3 minutes.
- Pour in the broth and scrape the bottom of the pot. Dump in the tomatoes, tomato sauce, tomato paste, allspice, rice and cabbage.
- Cover the pot and secure the lid. Make sure the valve is set to sealing. Set the SOUP button to 4 minutes. When the time is up let the pot sit for 10 minutes and then move the valve to venting. Remove the lid. Stir the soup. Salt and pepper to taste.
- Ladle into bowls and serve. You can top with grated mozzarella cheese if desired.

Ren says
This looks great – do you think it would work with ground sausage instead of plain ground beef? (just “regular” sausage, not Italian or spicy or anything)
Karen says
oh yes that would be lots of flavor!
KAC says
Made this exactly as directed. But at the end we added a dash of MAPLE SYRUP to each bowl – YUM! We love sweet and sour cabbage soup and were craving that hint of sweetness. You could also use sugar. So earthy and satisfying!
Karen says
I love that idea!
Hannah says
Super easy to make and delicious!
Karen says
Thanks for the 5 stars Hannah!
Pam says
I surely loved this cabbage roll soup. Even though I was missing the tomato paste and substituted a spaghetti sauce for the tomato sauce and tomatoes as it had fire-roasted tomatoes in it so it was a win win for me 🙂 This soup is very flavorful.
Karen says
that sounds so good! Glad you loved it Pam!
Cindy says
My mom made the best cabbage rolls and her secret ingredient was a can of sauerkraut. So I added a can on sauerkraut to this soup. Also doubled the allspice and paprika. It was so yummy, and easy!.
Karen says
Wow love the idea of sauerkraut!
Julie C says
Hi, I have made this recipe twice in my pressure cooker. Doubling the Allspice and using a sweet tomato sauce made it taste exactly like the Golumpki my neighbor from Poland used to make. Thanks!
julie c says
Forgot to say that I doubled the Paprika too!
Karen says
Thanks Julie! I am so glad to hear you liked the soup!
Lévon says
Hi there Karen. These are all wonderful, easy and healthy soup recipes. I recently, was told by my Doctor to lose some 20 lb, and suggested that I stay away from all or virtually all starchy foods or grains. Specifically Included: Bread of course, Potato, Rice and most dried Beans and Corn. I see you have pretty much avoided all of the above listed, and yet there are some that still have Rice and other starchy items. What can I replace those perhaps with something less starchy ones?
Or even eliminate them all together from some of these recipes?
Lévon
Karen says
I would use cauliflower in the place of rice or potatoes. That is a good substitution! Try this soup: https://www.365daysofcrockpot.com/instant-pot-weight-loss-magic-soup/
Sunny D says
Made this for dinner last night, and it was a big hit with everyone! I had to sub the fresh onion with 2 tsp onion powder (due to dietary restrictions), but it still turned out really good. Will probably add some more cabbage next time too, to make it extra cabbage-y 😁
Thanks for the recipe!
Karen says
you’re welcome Sunny!
Kim says
This was delicious and easy!
Karen says
Thanks for the 5 stars!
Sam says
I’ll start by saying I’ve never had a cabbage roll in my 25 years of living so I can’t compare to the original and we are also vegetarian. I made this recipe using an alternative to ground beef and with long grain brown rice. How yummy! Thanks for the recipe. The 20 min with 10 min NPR worked out fine for the rice.
Karen says
So glad you liked it and you made it in a way that worked for you! Thanks for the 5 stars.
Liz says
Can this be made in a 3 quart?
Karen says
In order to fit I think you’ll need to halve the recipe in the 3 quart pot.
Deb says
My instant pot broke and can’t afford a new one. But, this recipe sounds great! I’m just wondering if I could make it on the stovetop.
Karen says
Sure you could do that. I would brown the ground beef in a pot with a lid or dutch oven and then add the rest of the ingredients and cover and and simmer on low for 30 minutes
Janice says
Oh my gosh, I was soooo nervous making this (instant pot rookie here.) IT WAS FANTASTIC! Followed the recipe exactly, tasted, and then added about 1/4 cup more water because it was a little salty for me. Hubby gave it FIVE STARS and said to add it to our rotation! Next time, I might add another cup of broth because I like it soup-ier.
Karen says
Good work Janice! I am proud of you!
Gaylene Weil says
WOW! This is so easy and sooooo good! I had half a head of cabbage laying in the fridge I didn’t know what to do with and this email came through so I tried it! And it it amazing! Just wish I had cooked it out on the front porch and released it out there. Pretty sure the Hubby won’t think it smells as good as I do! Lol! I can’t wait to share some with my parents, I know they will love it too! Thanks again for a wonderful recipe!
Karen says
Woo hoo! So glad you liked it. Thanks for the 5 stars!
Jacob Schneider says
Wow I made this per the recipe and it was so delicioso! I am going to add some chorizo with the ground beef next time.. I love the cabbage rolls but they are labor intensive and this tasted just as good if not better! I used campbells beef consume also plus Sazon seasoning.and San Marzano crushed tomatoes. Keep up the good work.
Best Regards
Jacob
Karen says
I agree! I think this soup is just as good as cabbage rolls!
dee hoening says
I use stewed tomatoes
Sam says
OK, I’m going to do this over the weekend. I’ve had my IP for a year now and still have not used it, so this will be my first. Question for you please. If I double the recipe will it work in my 6qt IP? I noticed that someone said it did not fit in their 8qt.
Many thanks for the recipe and all of the recipes you have sent me. I will be doing my best to make up some of these over the fall.
I still remember the old exploding pots so I’ve been a bit reluctant.
Also love all of the comments from everyone. Many thanks to all of you also.
Karen says
You can do this! And I would not double the soup recipe in the 6 quart pot.
Wayne gabel says
Hi. Yes soup sounds fantastic. Just would like some information if possible I am new at making this kind of stuff. Just wondering if you can use and how to use dehydrated onions and dehydrated cabbage. All your help would be appreciated.
Karen says
I bet you could use those! I don’t have much experience but I’m thinking you would use 1/4 of the regular amount.
Barbara says
This was a super easy recipe for people who are just starting to use an Instant Pot. The soup was amazing! My husband had it at work as he is a night shift worker and his fellow colleagues wanted to know what it was cause it smelt so good and they wanted the recipe. It gets better when it has been sitting for a day or two in the fridge. I used savoy cabbage since that is what I had on hand but will try next time with the harder green cabbage.
Karen says
I’m glad your husband liked it! Hopefully he was able to share with his co-workers haha!
Barbara Williams says
They did get the recipe!
Christina says
Would this work with a gluten free brown rice?
Karen says
You’d need to pressure cook for 20 minutes with a 10 minutes natural pressure release.
Dana Merrill says
Would this work with purple cabbage?
Karen says
Sure. It will look super colorful
Tarin Miller says
How much is one serving would you say?
Karen says
I’d say about 1.5 cups
Denise says
I made this today. It was delicious! 😋 The only thing I did differently was add a grated, large carrot, cuz hey, more veggies are always good! I used to make an unstuffed roll soup using V-8, but this is much better!
Karen says
So glad you liked it! v8 sounds good too!
Holly R says
Made it right by the recipe and it just smelled and tasted like Worcestershire sauce to us. We are a slovic family that loves cabbage rolls but this in no way at resembled the traditional dish we love, I made it edible by adding brown sugar vinegar and lots of hot sauce. Loved the idea but not the outcome.
Karen says
Sorry you didn’t like it! I do love this one.
Patricia A Ellsworth says
This soup is sooooo delicious. I followed the recipe to a T and it is amazing. I used a whole head of cabbage (small head) as my husband loves cabbage.
Karen says
So glad you liked it! I love the cabbage too 🙂
Steve says
Awesome soup that’s full of flavor… and so easy to make! Thanks!
Karen says
You’re welcome! I’m glad you liked it Steve.
Judy says
Delicious and so much less work than cabbage rolls!
Karen says
Thanks for the 5 stars Judy!
Ashley J says
So very delicious!!! The whole family loved. I have already shared your recipes with many others!
Karen says
Thanks for sharing the love!
Kim B. says
You nailed it again, Instant Pot Girl!! Figured since the cabbage roll casserole recipe turned out so good I’d give this soup a try. So glad I did. What a hit! My husband says it’s better than the casserole & he made a pig out of himself on the casserole. Going to freeze a bag of it & take on camping trip. Can’t wait! Thanks again. You rock AND roll!
Karen says
ahhh, you’re so nice! I’m so glad you guys liked it!
Diane says
Delicious! We love it. So quick and easy. I added some Italian sausage. Thank you!
Karen says
That sounds fabulous. Italian sausage gives everything so much flavor!
Tamara says
Such a surprising delight! I did mine in skillet and then crockpot and still great! I used turmeric instead of paprika as I don’t have. This will be a regular dish in my house. My 7 year old son lived so much, but I had to stop him after 3 servings 😄
Karen says
That’s awesome! Wow 3 servings!
Courtney says
Hi,
Do you think that ground turkey and chicken broth could be substituted? I don’t eat beef, but this recipe sounds good 🙂
Tamara says
I definitely think so. Beef has a fattier flavor, so you might want to kick up the spice, cook with butter etc?
Karen says
Yes for sure!
Leanne says
How much is a serving?
Karen says
About 1.5 cups is a serving 😊
Carolyn says
I’m making this soup again today. It is one of my very favorite soup recipes. So full of flavor and filling. We love it!
Karen says
Same! It’s so good!
Robyn says
Is it real spicy and hot? With some of the ingredients, I am concerned it might be.
Karen says
No not really spicy at all, but lots of flavor. If you’re concerned then use regular paprika and regular diced tomatoes.
Gina Lam says
Would you have a Ninja Foodi version?
Karen says
I haven’t used the Ninja Foodi but it should be pretty much the same. Just use the pressure cook function.
Pixybrat says
In the ninja foodi you say use pressure cook function… Same amount of time and on high?
Karen says
Yep!
Dionne says
Just finished my second bowl. You are right, it was sooooo flavorful. Thanks for sharing this recipe. Cabbage is one of my favorite vegetables!
Karen says
Cabbage is underrated!
Beverly Dolfini says
OMGOSH! This was soooooo good! Thank you for another great recipe!
Karen says
You are so welcome Beverly!
Kelsey says
This was an amazingly delicious soup and a hit for the family. There were leftovers, and it was even more tastier the next day. Thanks for sharing.
Karen says
So glad you liked it!
Brenda says
Excellent soup! Thank you! I’ve made this twice. I added sliced celery and chopped bell pepper because I had a lot of those items from Costco and they seemed like a good addition. Also, only have regular diced tomatoes so added a shake of crushed red pepper flakes. This is so tasty and great for work lunches. Thank you for your wonderful recipe.
Karen says
You’re welcome I’m so glad you enjoyed it! Your version sounds great!
Leah says
This was real yummy! I kept going back for more! Looking at the other comments, garlic bread sounds like a good side for this soup. I may make some tomorrow to finish with this soup.
Karen says
Glad you enjoyed it Leah!
Lynne Brown says
Can I use regular diced tomatoes instead of fire roasted and regular paprika without affecting the taste much. I make this in the Crock-Pot but slightly different ingredients. Wonder if that same recipe could be used.
Karen says
Oh yes you could do that! It will still be super tasty! You could definitely try your version. I bet it would be great!
SUNNY says
KAREN!!! I CAN NOT SAY ENOUGH ABOUT HER EXCEPT SHE IS A WONDERFUL PERSON .AND ALL HER RECIPES SO DELISH.I GOT SOMEONE AN INSTANT POT OVER A YEAR AGO I SAID HOW DO YOU LIKE YOUR PIONEER WOMAN INSTANT POT . HAVE YOU USED IT . SHE SAID I AM SCARED I SAID I SEND YOU KARENS RECIPES . I TOLD HER TO START OFF WITH SPAGHETTI THE EASIEST,DO NOT BE SCARED JUST LOOK AT ALL YOUR FUNCTIONS AND HOW TO CLEAN MAKE SURE VALVE IS UP YOU WILL KNOW WHEN STEAM COME OUT .JUST TAKE A KNIFE AND BARELY LIFT THE LITTLE SILVER BUTTON UP .OPEN TO VENT WITH A WOODEN SPOON AND WAIT TILL STEAM STOPS . AND ALL DONE.BUT KARENS RECIPES ARE A LIFE SAVER.FIRST TIME I MADE STEW MY HUSBAND SAID THIS IS THE BEST STEW EVER SO MUCH FLAVOR MORE THAN DUTCH OVEN AND CROCK POT. WELL CROCK POT CAN DRY THINGS OUT AND MAKE THINGS CHEWY. NOT THE INSTANT POT. AND NOW OUR ANGEL KARENS RECIPES. THANK YOU KAREN FOR ALL YOU DO FOR ALL OF US. YOU SHOULD BE RATED #1 WITH 5 STARS ALWAYS.MORE PUBLICITY FOR KAREN PLEASE. I THINK WE ALL GET A LITTLE WORRIED WHEN USING A NEW PRODUCT LIKE THE INSTANT POT FOR THE FIRST TIME SIT DOWN AND READ FOR HALF HOUR THEN TRY WHEN YOU ARE READY . SUNNY
Karen says
Thanks Sunny! Hope you are doing well!
Celine says
Delicious! I omitted the rice to make it low carb (only did 5 cups of broth) and then added a steamed bag of cauliflower rice after it was done cooking. VERY easy to throw together and great flavor. Definitely saving this recipe, thank you for sharing!
Karen says
Celine, thanks for sharing! I love this idea! I bet others will use it too!
Darla Malone says
Can I use the grated slaw in bags from grocery store plz ?
Karen says
Sure
Sharon says
I’m so glad someone used cauliflower rice. I’m gonna make this tomorrow I hope.
Maggie says
Thank you I was wondering about making it low card with no rice.
Janice says
Just to clarify: you omitted the rice and reduced the broth. You steamed the cauliflower rice separately and then added before serving? Also, does cauliflower rice freeze well?
Thanks!
Jean Scully says
This was absolutely delicious! I was in a rush and Trader Joe’s didn’t have any whole cabbages, so I used a bag of their organic pre-shredded coleslaw mix, which is green and purple cabbage and some shredded carrots. One bag was 6 cups so it worked out perfectly! I’m sure it would have had a different texture with the nice wide slices, but it tasted fine and they didn’t turn out mushy or anything. I will definitely make this again!
Karen says
That’s a good tip for people in a hurry!
Kara says
I am so happy someone used the preshredded cabbage mix! I was wondering about that. Thanks for sharing!
Kat says
Yum!
Made this for dinner tonight and it turned out really well.
The only thing I changed was that I used instant brown rice instead of white rice. I didn’t change the cook time and it turned out perfect.
Karen says
GREAT to know this! I often have minute brown rice at my house. So next time I’ll try that.
Mary says
I made this soup in my Instant Pot and it was delicious. I used brown rice instead of white rice. Leftovers were even better the next day. I will definitely make this again
Karen says
And how did the cabbage hold up when cooking the longer time for the brown rice?
Gloria says
I made this for a World Series party…GO ASTROS!! Everyone raved about it. I added an extra Fire Roasted tomato can just because I had it and WOW, it was sooooo DELICIOUS, next time I will double the garlic and paprika for just a bit more spice and the whole head of cabbage, just because, but seriously this could replace my cabbage rolls since it was so darn EASY and Delicious!! Thank you so much Karen!!
Karen says
Yay!! Go Astros!
Mary Arzate says
Loved the cabbage roll soup. Tasted just like cabbage rolls only easier. I love the spices you used, smoked paprika and allspice. I had to make a change though but turned out great. I can’t eat tomatoes so in recipes that call for tomatoes, I usually substitute Trader Joe’s red pepper spread, or Avjar, and some chopped canned green chili’s. It’s thick like tomato paste , so I add water. I also used ground turkey instead of beef, but the beef broth gives it nice flavor. It was wonderful. Thanks for all your great and easy recipes.
Karen says
I love that idea for substitution. I wish I had a Trader Joe’s near me.
Marietta says
I made this with ground turkey and it was delicious!
Karen says
So glad you liked it Marietta.
Kim says
Has anyone tried this with cauliflower rice. I am diabetic i tried to avoid rice, pasta, potatoes & bread. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Karen says
Make it without the rice and then stir in cauliflower rice at the end. That’s what I would do. I would also reduce the liquid by about a cup.
DIANA McGEE says
How long would this need to cook if I exclusively wild rice?
Karen says
Probably 25 minutes with a NPR.
Nancy Brooks says
I think I’m going to try this and substitute a good smoked sausage for the hamburger. I’ll also add diced potatoes.
Karen says
Good idea!
Andrée says
Hello Karen
I made this delicious cabbage soup!
I didn’t have any smoked paprika, so I put on the regular paprika. I didn’t know roasted tomatoes either, so it was a great discovery!
My family loved it very much.
Thank you for helping us make good meals for our families and I enjoy my Instant Pot!
Karen says
Yes the fire roasted tomatoes are such a flavor booster!
Blossom Smith says
That’s a great tip about using the saute function to help it heat up more quickly! I still haven’t tried rice yet but I hope to soon. I hope you love the soup! I’ll try your tortilla trick next time.
Suzanne says
Very excited how well this recipe turned out. Absolute hit with the whole family. Doubled the garlic powder and smoked paprika (next time will add just a pinch of cayenne). Quick, easy, accurate directions. Thanks so much for sharing. This is my ‘go to’ site for UP recipes.
Karen says
Great Suzanne! So happy you enjoyed it!
Sharon says
This was good. I added diced carrots and celery. Will add a bay leaf or two next time as well as a bit of brown sugar. Was good served with French bread and basil butter.
Karen says
basil butter sounds so great!
Jac says
I made this the other night. It’s delicious, reaked a little havoc on my gut my very yummy!
Karen says
Sometimes it’s worth it! LOL!
Amy Roney says
Would the cook time change if I wanted to use egg noodles instead of rice?
Karen says
Yes. Egg noodles shouldn’t be pressure cooked. They will cook too quickly and get mushy. I would cook them on the stove separately and then stir them in.
Donna says
Made this soup last night and it was a huge hit! I served it with sliced garlic bread. Had plenty left over for today and extra to freeze for a treat on a chilly day. Another perfect recipe!
Karen says
GARLIC BREAD! I need some now! haha!
Mary Kay says
Hi Karen,
I just LOVE your recipes! Have many, many pinned to use over & over 😁.
For this recipe, could I use brown rice instead of whit, and if so, what changes would I need to make as far as time of cooking?
Thanks!
Mary Kay
CB says
I was wondering the same thing!
Karen says
I haven’t tried brown rice yet. But brown rice needs 22 minutes of cooking time when cooking by itself. This will take longer to come to pressure though and the rice would be cooking the whole time it comes to pressure. So if you put in brown rice try an 18 minute cooking time. My only worry is that the cabbage would be turned to mush. I’m just not sure. Try it and let me know how it goes!
Donna says
To substitute brown rice for white rice in this soup (and other Instant Pot soup recipes that call for white rice)…I cook the brown rice separately and then add it into the finished soup, otherwise the other ingredients in the soup over cook due to the much longer cook time required for brown rice.
Karen says
Good tip Donna!
Karen says
I made this today. I had cooked rice in the freezer,so I added it after the soup was cooked. Turned out really well. My point is – you can cook your brown rice ahead & add after the soup is cooked
Karen says
Great! Thanks for sharing!!
Stefanie says
Hi Karen! Do you know if this soup would freeze well? I’m prepping my freezer with easy meals post-baby.
Karen says
I was thinking about this and I think that it probably would. Will you be making it and then freezing it? Or prepping ingredients and freezing them and then cooking them?
Donna says
This soup freezes very well…I know because I have some stashed in the freezer, and thawed some for lunch today. The taste and texture was just as good as freshly made and straight from the pot 🙂
Karen says
GREAT info. Thanks for sharing.
Andrée says
Hello Karen
Thank you for this new soup recipe! For dinner I made one of my favorite soups: INSTANT POT PASTA E FAGIOLI SOUP. As I have to use gluten-free pasta, I cook pasta separately and add it to the bowls.
I’ll make this soup as soon as we finish the other one.
I appreciate your recipes so much, Karen!
Karen says
Good idea cooking the pasta separately!
Kara says
I want to double this. What changes to the broth and time do I need to make?
Karen says
double everything keep the same cooking time. https://www.365daysofcrockpot.com/how-to-double-instant-pot-recipes/
PamG says
Doesn’t fit in my 8 qt!!! So I’ve left out the cabbage and will transfer to my huge soup pot on the stove to finish cooking with the cabbage…
Karen says
oh shoot!!! I’m sorry!
Emily says
I grew up on a similar soup but there were other veggies – carrots, potato, and celery. Is there a way to modify to include?
Sally Gibbs says
I make a similar soup on the stove, but I use actual leftover stuffed cabbage (I always make extra on purpose). I sweat about 1 cup of finely chopped onion, 1 and 1/2 cups chopped celery, add 6 to8 cups of beef broth and 2 to 3 cups of potatoes cut in small pieces. Boil for 5-6 minutes and add either leftover sauce from the stuffed cabbage (again, I make extra on purpose), at least 3 cups. If I don’t have enough, I add a 28 ounce can of crushed tomatoes, 2 Tbles of brown sugar and 2 Tbles of vinegar. I add 6 to 8 cabbage rolls, chopped in small pieces and maybe a cup to a cup and one half of the chopped cabbage I cook with my stuffed cabbage. I cook it until the potatoes are softened and serve it with crusty bread. If it it too thin, I add some cooked barley—-which I make before I start the soup…then if I don’t need it, the next day I make a barley based soup. I do the same thing with stuffed peppers, except I don’t use all of the peppers, probably just half, and I chopped the peppers really fine, while I leave the filling inlarger chopped pieces.
Donna says
To Emily’s question (October 2, 2019) as to including carrots, celery and potatoes to this soup…I would add 2-3 carrots, chopped and 3-4 celery, chopped along with the chopped onion etc. to the browned ground beef and cook about 3 minutes as directed. Then I would add bite sized pieces of potato along with the broth, tomatoes etc. and proceed with the recipe as directed.
Karen says
Yes I’m sure you could add those in. I like these suggestions from others.
