Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Butter a 9x13 pan.
  2. Brown ground beef, ground pork, onion and garlic until no pink remains. Drain any fat.
  3. Add tomato sauce, canned tomatoes, tomato paste, parsley, dill, salt, pepper, and bay leaf. Simmer covered for 10 minutes. Remove bay leaf and stir in rice.
  4. Meanwhile, heat olive oil in a large frying pan over medium heat. Add cabbage and cook until tender-crisp.
  5. Place half of the cabbage in the pan. Top with half of the beef/rice mixture. Repeat layers ending with beef/rice.
  6. Bake uncovered 25-30 minutes or until hot & bubbly.

Notes

  • I often add 1 can of condensed tomato soup to the tomato mixture. This is optional but adds a bit of sweetness.
  • Store covered leftovers in the fridge for up to 4 days. 
  • This casserole can be frozen before or after baking for up to 3 months. To bake, thaw overnight in the fridge & bake as per the directions in the original recipe adding 15 to 20 minutes to the cooking time.
