"Looking for a new way to eat cabbage? This is it! Easy, very flavorful, and a crowd pleaser. I found the original recipe in a taste of home cookbook by Bobbie Soileau,from LA. I have changed it somewhat, as I wanted more rice and more of tomato taste."

Step by Step Method
Step 1
In a skillet, brown the beef, pepper, onion and garlic over medium heat until the meat is no longer pink. Drain grease.
Step 2
Stir in tomatoes with chilies and half of the tomato sauce, water, rice and seasonings to the meat.
Step 3
Pour mixture into a greased 9x13 pan.
Step 4
Top with cabbage, and then pour the remaining tomato sauce over the top. Spread out with a spatula. You can add a bit of water to the can to get it all, and spread that over the cabbage.
Step 5
Cover with tinfoil and bake at 375° for 1 hour. Uncover, stir the casserole, and add the cheese on top. Bake uncovered to melt the cheese, and brown if desired.

*The spices can be altered to fit your families tastes. I always serve with hot sauce.
