Another great “If you like cabbage” recipe.This casserole is an entire meal in one with rice, meat and vegetables.. It also reheats well if you want to make it a day ahead to bring to a gathering.
For a great taste variation, add one pound crawfish or shrimp or two cups chicken.
Ingredients
- 1 pound ground meat or 1/2 pound beef and 1/2 pound pork
- 1 cup onion chopped fine
- 1 cup bell pepper chopped fine
- 1 celery rib chopped fine
- 1 garlic clove chopped fine
- 1 8oz can tomato soup or 1 can Rotel tomato or 1/2 can of each
- 1 medium head of cabbage
- 1/2 cup raw rice
- salt, black pepper, onion and garlic powder to taste
- 1 can water
- butter (for greasing pan)
Directions
Step 1
In a medium sauce pan, mix the onion, bell pepper, celery, and garlic with the meat and brown.
Step 2
Add the raw rice to the mixture.
I like to use the 96 percent fat free ground meat thus making it heart healthier.
Slice the cabbage 1/2 inch thick and lay in a buttered 13x9 casserole dish.
Pour meat mixture over the cabbage. Step 3
Mix 1 can tomato soup with 1 can water and pour over the mixture.
Step 4
Cover and bake at 350 degrees for 1 hour.
Step 5
For spice, change it up by using 1/2 can of spicy Rotel and in turn, using just 1/2 can of tomato soup.
Or if you prefer more rice, increase rice to one cup, use both cans tomato soup and Rotel and add 2 cans of water instead of one.Step 6
Variation: Add one pound shrimp or crawfish.
