Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 1 medium head green cabbage, chopped Use fresh cabbage for better texture.
  • 1 medium onion, diced
  • 2 cups diced tomatoes (canned or fresh)
  • 1 cup beef broth
  • 1 tablespoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon salt to taste
Optional Toppings
  • shredded cheese
  • sour cream
  • chopped parsley

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and cook until translucent.
  3. Add the ground beef to the skillet and cook until browned. Drain any excess fat.
  4. Once the beef is cooked, add the chopped cabbage to the skillet, stirring until the cabbage wilts slightly—about 3-5 minutes.
  5. Stir in the diced tomatoes (including their juice) and the beef broth. Sprinkle in the garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Combine thoroughly.
  6. Pour the mixture into a greased casserole dish, spreading it evenly.
  7. Cover with foil and bake for about 25 minutes. Then, remove the foil and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes until bubbly and the cabbage is tender.
  8. Remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before serving. Add optional toppings as desired.

Notes

For a cheesy delight, sprinkle shredded cheese on top during the last few minutes of baking. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to three days.
