Yes, you can, I tried it, but I used splenda, instead of sugar 

 

Ladean 

Boil or bake 3-4 chicken breasts 

Pull leaves off cabbage and wash 

Chop 1 large onion 

Prepare sauce, I make mine from no salt tomato sauce, stewed tomatoes, and favorite spices 

  

Shred chicken and add to sauce along with onions and spices cook 15 min or so on Med heat  

Layer sauce and cabbage leaves and FF or LF cheese and or LF cottage or ricotta cheese, keep layering. 

Cover with aluminum foil and bake for 45 min on 350 

  

I don't add both FF cheese and cottage cheese unless I have the extra dairy to do so.
