Description
A comforting and hearty dish made with ground beef, cabbage, and cheese, perfect for family dinners.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1 medium onion, chopped
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- 1 small head of cabbage, chopped (about 4 cups)
- 1 can (15 ounces) diced tomatoes, undrained
- 1 cup cooked rice (white or brown)
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F.
- In a large skillet over medium heat, brown the ground beef with the chopped onion and minced garlic until the beef is fully cooked and the onion is translucent, about 5-7 minutes. Drain any excess fat.
- Add the chopped cabbage to the skillet and cook for an additional 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the cabbage begins to soften.
- Stir in the diced tomatoes (with juice), cooked rice, oregano, salt, and black pepper. Mix well and let it simmer for another 5 minutes.
- Transfer the mixture to a greased 9×13-inch baking dish. Spread it evenly and top with shredded cheddar cheese.
- Cover the dish with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes.
- Remove the foil and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
- Let the dish cool for a few minutes before serving.
Notes
- For a lighter version, substitute ground turkey or chicken for the beef.
- You can also add other vegetables like bell peppers or carrots for extra flavor and nutrition.
- For a spicy kick, add a teaspoon of red pepper flakes to the beef mixture.
