My mom made this many times for Saturday dinner when we were growing up. It is quick to prep and makes a satisfying meal with fresh bread.

Ingredients | Rice Ground Beef Casserole Recipes

1 head green cabbage, shredded

½ cup uncooked long-grain white rice

1 pound ground beef

1 small onion, chopped

1 ½ teaspoons dried oregano

½ teaspoon dried sweet basil

¼ teaspoon garlic powder

¼ teaspoon dried thyme

½ teaspoon salt

½ teaspoon white sugar

¼ teaspoon ground black pepper

1 (28 ounce) can whole tomatoes

10 slices American cheese

Directions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

Spread cabbage in the bottom of a 9x13-inch baking dish; sprinkle rice on top.

Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Cook and stir beef in the hot skillet until browned and crumbly, 5 to 7 minutes; drain and discard grease. Add onion, oregano, basil, garlic powder, and thyme; cook and stir until onion is transparent, about 5 minutes. Season with sugar, salt, and pepper.

Spoon beef mixture over rice and cabbage in the baking dish. Break up tomatoes in the can with your hand; pour over beef mixture. Cover baking dish with aluminum foil.

Bake in the preheated oven until rice is tender, about 1 hour 15 minutes. Uncover and arrange American cheese slices over casserole. Let stand until cheese melts and absorbs juices, 15 to 20 minutes.

Substitute 2 cups shredded Cheddar cheese for the American cheese if desired.
