Ground Meat and Cabbage Casserole
Ingredients
- 1 lb extra-lean ground beef (or mixture of beef & turkey)
- 1 small onion, diced
- 2 Tbs. oil
- 1/2 head cabbage (about 3 C. coarsely shredded)
- 2 tbs. carrots, shredded (optional)
- 1 bouillon cube*
- 1/2 C. water
- garlic to taste
- 1/2 tsp. caraway seeds
- onion powder, black pepper and salt - all to taste
- small tomato - thinly sliced
- shredded parmesan and/or Romano cheese
Directions
Preheat oven to 350 F. Combine ground meat, onion and garlic powder in a 2 qt. covered oven casserole/pan with oil. Sauté uncovered for about 15 minutes, stirring occasionally to break up meat mixture. Drain off any fat. (Optionally, this can be done in a skillet and then moved to a covered casserole at this point.) Add cabbage and all but last two ingredients and toss well. Cover casserole and bake at 3500F for 1 hour. Remove cover during last 15 minutes, top with sliced tomatoes and shredded cheese and return to oven for balance of baking time.
Makes 6 servings.
