Ingredients

Scale

Meat and Vegetables

  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 1 small onion, finely chopped
  • 1 small cabbage, shredded

Other Ingredients

  • 1 can (14.5 oz) diced tomatoes with juice
  • 1 cup cooked rice
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Get Your Oven Ready: Preheat your oven to 350°F to ensure it’s hot and ready for baking the mixture evenly.
  2. Brown the Beef and Onions: In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef and chopped onion until the beef is no longer pink and the onion is translucent and fragrant, forming a rich flavor base.
  3. Add All the Good Stuff: Add shredded cabbage, diced tomatoes with their juice, cooked rice, Worcestershire sauce, paprika, garlic powder, salt, and pepper to the skillet. Stir everything together until well combined.
  4. Let the Flavors Meld: Simmer the mixture on low heat for about 5 minutes, allowing the flavors to blend and the cabbage to soften slightly.
  5. Transfer to Baking Dish: Spoon the mixture into a baking dish and cover tightly with foil to retain moisture during baking.
  6. Bake to Perfection: Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 30-35 minutes, until the cabbage is tender and the dish is heated through.
  7. Rest and Serve: Remove from the oven and allow the bake to rest for a few minutes to let the flavors settle before serving. Enjoy your comforting meal!

Notes

  • You can substitute ground turkey for a leaner option.
  • Add a sprinkle of shredded cheese on top before baking for a cheesy twist.
  • Serve with a side of crusty bread or a fresh green salad for a complete meal.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
  • Ensure the cabbage is finely shredded for even cooking and better texture.
