I picked up a bag of coleslaw instead of shredded lettuce by accident one day and coleslaw mix(cabbage, red cabbage, carrot) has been the base of most of my salads since.
Ground beef seasoned(salt, pepper and paprika) and cooked. Then into a pot with chicken or veggie stock.
In the same pan that the ground was cooked in. Lightly cook(2-3 mins) an onion and a whole chopped cabbage. Cabbage should be softened but still crispy, onion should be slighlty softer than cabbage. Toss the veggie mix into the pot.
Add a large can of tomatoes, juice and all. I prefer Italian tomatoes or fire roasted but any work.
Taste and season with salt as nessessary. Pepper and garlic power are good as well. Cinnamon can be added if you like cabbage rolls with that spice, I don’t.
Let the pot simmer for about 10 mins. Pop the lid and throw in a cup or two of rice and let simmer until rice is cooked.
All the flavour of cabbage rolls without the sloppy boiled cabbage texture.
Ah see I thought you where saying you only like cabbage chopped up finely in a salad. I “don’t like” cabbage as but I find I can eat slaw or similarly in a salad and what I found is if its finely enough chopped up it does not bother me. Unfortunately its likely I won’t like the whole leaf rolls like that. Given your first comment I thought you might be the same way so I figured I would mention my other trick.

Boiled cabbage is gross.
use the food processor to turn the cabbage into a mince and make a soup and its awesome
I like to make a Cabbage Roll soup as well.
