1 lb - extra Lean Ground Beef (or chicken or turkey)
1 cup uncooked Instant Whole Grain Brown Rice
1 Onion chopped
2 cans diced Tomatoes - (no salt added/low sodium preferably)
1/4 cup Ketchup or tomatoe sauce
1 medium head Cabbage - sliced
1/4 cup reduced fat shredded cheese (optional)
Directions
1. Preheat oven to 375°
2. Brown ground meat with onion in skillet stirring and crumbling the
meat as it cooks. Drain well, rinse if desired.
3. While meat browns, cut cabbage into wedges and then slice each wedge
to make small, but not tiny, shreds.
4. To cooked meat add canned tomatoes, ketchup, uncooked rice, and
any other spices or seasonings you wish. You can use the Italian or Mexican
style tomatoes to add extra flavor if desired. Allow to simmer briefly.
Add water if the mixture seems to need it. The rice will absorbe approximately
1 cup of liquid.
5. Place a layer of cabbage in a large or two small casserole dishes
(sprayed with Pam or Olive Oil). Cover the cabbage with a layer of the
meat/rice/tomatoe mixture. Repeat layers till all ingredients are used
up. Try to end with a meat mixture layer.
6. Sprinkle lightly with cheese if desired.
7. Bake for approximately 45 minutes.
