Recipe type: Main Dish
Serves: 6-8 servings
Ingredients
  • 2 tablespoons Olive Oil
  • 1 lb package Lean Ground Beef
  • ½ White Onion, chopped
  • 1 teaspoon Garlic Powder
  • ½ teaspoon Onion Powder
  • ¼ teaspoon Dried Thyme
  • ¼ teaspoon Ground Pepper
  • ½ teaspoon Sea Salt
  • 1 cup uncooked rice (I used long-grain rice, but quick cook rice or your favorite rice blend or quinoa will work)
  • 1½ cups Water
  • 14 ounce can Diced Tomatoes
  • ½ head small Green Cabbage, chopped
  • 1 cup Shredded Cheddar Jack Cheese
  • Chopped Parsley
  • Salt & Pepper, to taste
  • Hot Sauce (optional)
Preparation Instructions
  1. Heat a large pot over medium high heat. Add the olive oil and once the oil is hot, add the ground beef and chopped onion. Cook until the meat is browned, and drain the drippings if necessary.
  2. Add the spices including garlic powder, onion powder, dried thyme, ground pepper, and salt to the meat and stir.
  3. Next stir in the uncooked rice and stir for 30-60 seconds to start to infuse the rice with a bit more flavor.
  4. Add the water and can of diced tomatoes to the pot. Stir and bring the mixture to a boil.
  5. Once boiling, stir then add the cabbage and cover the pan. Reduce the heat to medium low and cook for the length of time your rice (or quinoa) requires.
  6. Once the rice and cabbage are cooked, season with additional salt, pepper, and hot sauce and stir. Finally top with the cheese and put the lid back on and let the cheese steam and melt for 1-2 minutes.
  7. Top the casserole with some chopped parsley and serve immediately. Enjoy!
