Fold over the ribbed end of the leaf, then fold over the two sides and roll up. Place 5 cups shredded cabbage, 1 cup carrots, 1 cup green pepper in bottom of a 13 x 9-inch baking dish. Place filled cabbage leaves on top of shredded vegetable mixture. Pour condensed chicken broth over all. Cover dish with aluminum foil. Bake 30 minutes. Uncover and bake an additional 15 minutes.
