Ingredients

1 Tablespoon olive oil

  • 1 pound ground beef, lean preferred (93/7)
  • 1 cup diced onion
  • 1 cup diced carrots
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 3 cups chopped green cabbage
  • 4 cups beef broth
  • 16 ounces tomato sauce
  • ½ cup uncooked white rice
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon pepper

Instructions

  1. In a large stock pot, heat oil over medium high heat. Add beef and cook, breaking apart, until no longer pink.
  2. Add onion and carrots and cook until tender, about 5 minutes.
  3. Add garlic and green cabbage and cook until cabbage begins to soften.
  4. Pour in beef broth, tomato sauce, rice, salt, and pepper and stir until combined.
  5. Bring the mixture to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer for 30 minutes or until rice is cooked through.
  6. Serve immediately.

Notes

  • Brown meat first, then transfer everything (except rice) to the slow cooker.
  • Cook on LOW for 7–8 hours or HIGH for 4 hours.
  • Add rice in the last 20 minutes to prevent it from getting mushy.
  • When reheating, add extra broth if the rice has absorbed too much of the liquid.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for 3-5 days.
  • Freezes well for up to 2 months—use airtight containers, bags, or freezer trays.
