Ingredients:

• 1 yellow onion, diced
• 1 carrot, diced
• 1 lb ground beef
• 4 cloves of garlic, minced
• 24 oz jar of marinara sauce
• 1 tsp smoked paprika
• 1/5 tsp pepper
• 4 cups of sliced cabbage
• 1/5 cup uncooked rice
• 1 cup of water

Instructions:

• Cook onion, carrot and ground beef in a large and deep skillet for about 5 minutes (ground beef should almost be fully cooked)
• Stir in garlic, sauce, smoked paprika, and pepper
• Bring to a gentle boil
• Add in cabbage and rice
• Cook for about 35-40 minutes, until rice it cooked. You will need to add in water a little at a time to keep the liquid line up to cook the rice.
• Salt and pepper to taste
• Serve and enjoy!

We loved that this had a little bit of a crunch. It was very delicious. Brian thinks it will be good with ground sausage too.
