One-Skillet Cabbage Roll Casserole
This One-Skillet Cabbage Roll Casserole simplifies the traditional cabbage roll into an easy, one-pan dish that combines ground beef, cabbage, rice, and tomato sauce for a hearty, comforting meal.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 pound ground beef
- ½ large head of cabbage, shredded
- ½ cup uncooked rice
- 1 large white onion, chopped
- 15 oz can tomato sauce
- 15 oz beef broth
- 2 tsp minced garlic
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Shredded cheese (optional for topping)
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven: Start by heating the oven to 350°F.
- Brown the Beef: In a large skillet, cook the ground beef over medium-high heat until browned, adding garlic in the last minute. Drain excess fat.
- Combine Ingredients: Add shredded cabbage, chopped onion, tomato sauce, beef broth, rice, salt, and pepper to the skillet. Mix thoroughly.
