Ingredients
-
1 lb ground beef
-
1/2 cup chopped onion (or more)
-
1/2 head chopped cabbage (at least 6-8 cups worth)
-
1 (10 1/2 ounce) can tomato soup
-
8 ounces tomato sauce
-
1/2 cup water
-
1/4 teaspoon marjoram (if you don't have marjoram use a little extra oregano....they are very similar in flavor)
-
3/4 teaspoon salt
-
1/2 teaspoon pepper
-
1/2 teaspoon oregano
-
2 teaspoons brown sugar
-
1/2 cup uncooked longrain rice
Instructions
- Brown the ground beef and onion. Drain. Mix the rice into that. Set aside. Chop the cabbage and spread over the bottom of a 13x9 pan. Spread the meat/onion mixture over that. In a saucepan combine the rest of the ingredients and bring them to a light boil. Pour this over the meat and cabbage. Cover tightly with foil and bake at 350 degrees for 1 1/4-1 1/2 hours. NOTE: Recently I have reversed the way I layer the ingredients in the baking dish. I put the meat/rice mix in first and top with the cabbage. I then pour the liquid over that. I find it works better as far as not ending up with hard bits of uncooked or dried up rice.
- I like to sometimes sprinkle my serving with parmesan cheese just for a little extra flavor, too.
- Note: If you don't have marjoram use extra oregano -- or -- if you have no oregano use extra marjoram -- they are very similar. I notice people saying they used garlic. Why didn't I think of that?! Love using garlic. I will be adding some next time I make this myself!
