Stuffed Cabbage Casserole
- Ready In:
- 3hrs
- Ingredients:
- 10
- Yields:
-
1 lasagna pan
- Serves:
- 4-6
ingredients
- 2 heads cabbage
- 1 lb ground beef
- 2 diced onions
- 2 stalks celery, finely diced
- 1 diced green bell pepper
- 5 freshly minced garlic cloves
- 1⁄2 cup fresh parsley
- 3⁄8 cup butter
- salt & pepper
- 3⁄4 cup cooked white rice
directions
- Cut the cabbage off the core, rinse well and place in a dutch oven with 2 cups water, salt to taste and 2 teaspoons butter and cook just to slightly soften the cabbage. Watch to see the water doesn't cook out. Add ¼ cup water at a time, if needed. When cooked, turn fire off and set aside.
- Add ground beef to a frying pan and break to brown. After completely free of any pinkness, add the onions, celery and bell pepper. Cook until limp on a medium fire. Then add the garlic, parsley, ¼ stick butter, salt and pepper to taste. Place a cover on top the pan and simmer on low for 15 minutes.
- Finally you can mix just a couple of spoons of cabbage into the meat mixture breaking the cabbage up with the spoon. This is optional, I just like to do it for my family. Then mix the meat mixture with the cabbage. When that's mixed, add the cooked rice and lightly blend well. If you think that it seems like too much or too little rice for the dish, you could always add more, but remember, it's not all about the rice. Place in a lasgana pan and dot with ¼ stick butter.
- Place in 350°oven for 25 minutes and serve.

Hi!
I live in New Orleans, La. and don't work anymore (thank God!). I love to cook and be with my grandchildren which I don't get to see much anymore since I don't drive, but I love them anyway. Any New Orleans or Louisiana cookbook with good recipes in it is good enough for me, but I usually cook from inside, if you know what I mean. :o) I'm single and have no passions that I know of but I'd be happy to find something! I do love CSI on Thursday nights and Monk on Fridays! Oh, I do like people, especially elderly people. I dislike loud music coming into my home from people's radios in their cars. It drives me bananas!!
