Oh, how good these cabbage wraps stuffed with mortadella taste, ideal as a one-pot meal for a nutritious lunch to serve.

In Italy it is mainly cultivated in the central-northern regions of Italy, particularly in Northern regions of Piedmont and Lombardy since savoy cabbage loves the cold climate that is certainly not lacking in these regions.
