Using cabbage leaves instead of lavash is a brilliant idea for a quick, tasty, low-calorie, and colorful appetizer for guests. Before wrapping the filling in the leaves, steam them slightly to make them more pliable. If you store the steamed leaves in a tightly sealed bag in the refrigerator, you can prepare these appetizers in minutes when you need a quick healthy snack or when guests are arriving. The filling can be filled with anything: slices of cheese, canned roasted peppers, ham, or leftover grilled chicken.

Cooking the dish according to the recipe:
- Place each cabbage leaf face down on a flat surface. Find the thickest part of the stem (the vein) and use a small, sharp knife to cut it off so the leaf is flat. This will make it easier to roll.
- Fill a large, wide frying pan or saucepan with 0.5 cm of water. Arrange several leaves overlapping each other in a circle on the bottom of the pan and sprinkle lightly with salt. Arrange the remaining leaves in the same manner.
- Place the pan over medium-high heat and, once steaming, reduce the heat to medium, cover, and simmer until the kale is bright green, tender, and pliable, 8-10 minutes. Remove from heat and use tongs to transfer the leaves to a baking sheet to cool completely.
- Lay 2 large cabbage leaves (or 3 if they're smaller) on a work surface, overlapping slightly. Add a few drops of hot sauce to the mayonnaise, if desired. Spoon 1/2 tablespoon of mayonnaise into the center of the leaves, spread it out, and top with a slice of cheese and three slices of roasted pepper. Top with another cabbage leaf, followed by two slices of ham or 1/4 cup of chicken. Fold the sides of the leaves inward and roll them tightly. Cut in half and enjoy, or refrigerate whole for a few hours before serving.
