Ingredients
  

  • 1 pound lean ground beef
  • ½ pound ground pork sausage
  • 1 medium onion diced
  • 3 cloves garlic minced
  • 2 tsp Italian seasoning
  • ½ tsp dry dill
  • 1 ¼ tsp salt
  • ½ tsp black pepper
  • 1 tsp sugar (white or brown sugar)
  • 8 oz can tomato sauce
  • 24 oz spaghetti sauce
  • 1 Tbsp worcestershire sauce
  • 1 cup beef broth
  • 1 cup long grain rice (raw, not cooked)
  • 6 cups chopped green cabbage
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

Instructions
 

  • Spray a 9x13" pan with cooking spray. Preheat your oven to 350°.
  • Cook ground beef, pork and chopped onion in a large skillet over medium-high heat until the meat is brown. Drain off any excess grease.
  • Stir in the garlic, Italian seasoning, dill, salt, pepper, and sugar and cook for 1 minute.
  • Add the tomato sauce, spaghetti sauce, Worcestershire, broth, and rice. Stir and bring to a boil.
  • Meanwhile, chop the cabbage and spread it in the prepared pan. Pour the meat mixture evenly over the top.
  • Cover with foil and bake for about 60 minutes, or until the cabbage and rice are tender.
  • Sprinkle cheese over the top, replace the foil, and bake for another 3-5 minutes, or until cheese is melted. Serve hot.

Notes

  • If you don't have the pork sausage, you can use an additional 1/2 pound of ground beef, or omit it altogether.
  • Leftover casserole can be covered with plastic wrap or stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 4-5 days.
