Instant Pot Stuffed Cabbage Roll Bowls (Whole30 Paleo) – a tasty and filling Whole30 compliant meal. These “unstuffed” cabbage rolls are full of protein and flavor and are ready in about 10 minutes!
Continuing with the Instant Pot Monday series, this week’s recipe is Instant Pot Stuffed Cabbage Bowls! These deconstructed cabbage rolls are made super quick in the Instant Pot, perfect for busy Monday night meal time. Same great comfort flavors as the classic dish, but totally fuss free!
To make these bowls, you’ll just need a few staples and very little prep. I’m a huge fan of recipes that mimic classic comfort food flavors but create shortcuts for getting dinner done fast. This meal needs only about 10 minutes of total time in the Instant Pot between sautéing, coming to pressure, and cooking. That’s a definite winner in my book!
There’s nothing fancy about this dish, but I find it to be completely delicious and satisfying. If you like a bigger punch of flavor, additional spice can be added. Red pepper flakes or smoked paprika would be wonderful, or a dash of hot sauce or sriracha on top. If you’re not concerned with staying Whole30 compliant, the cauliflower rice could be substituted for brown/white rice or left out completely.
I’m looking forward to all the leftovers for lunch this week! What are you making for Instant Pot Monday? If you need more suggestions, head over to my Instant Pot recipe archives for plenty of simple, delicious ideas!

Love this! It’s so simple and I loved adding the extra spice on top.
Thanks, Kennedy! I like the extra spice too 🙂
I love this recipe! I am not the best cook, and I’m busy. This recipe is not too fussy and easy to make. I think it tastes great. It is full of protein, but it has a lot of veggies too. I use about 8 cups total of cabbage to up the veggies even more and 1 whole cup of (sugar free) pasta or pizza sauce for extra flavor and sauciness.
Thanks, Amy! Love your suggestions!
What type of cauliflower rice do you use? Is it frozen? Wanting to make this tomorrow! Looks delicious!
Hi Christina, frozen cauliflower is definitely the easiest and most convenient. You can always rice your own in the food processor if you like!
My kids are very good eaters but they usually don’t care for cauliflower or cabbage. I saw this recipe and had my doubts but it was a success! The kitchen smelled great! Second helpings were requested and cleaned plates were put up to the sink. My husband even said “Make this again!” PLUS…this was SO simple! Thank you! I did add some shredded mozzarella on top when serving because my family loves cheese so much 🙂
Awesome to hear, Michelle! Thanks so much!
My picky family LOVED this meal! It’s so easy and so delicious! Thank you!
Yay! Thanks so much, Arden! Glad to hear it was a hit with your family. 🙂
Turned out great!
My husband is Russian and he was obsessed with this dish last night when I made it. He said it tastes just like what his mom and his Babushka used to make (of course they had the time to roll the cabbage leaves). And it’s so easy and healthy! Will definitely be a staple! Thank you!
