Saucy Beef and Cabbage Dinner

TOTAL TIME: Prep: 15 min. Cook: 25 min. YIELD: 8 servings.
Using cabbage is a fantastic way to bulk up a meal without adding extra fat and calories. The cabbage in this dish is tender but still has a nice crunch. —Marcia Doyle, Pompano, Florida

Ingredients

  • 1 pound lean ground beef (90% lean)
  • 1 large onion, chopped
  • 1 cup sliced fresh mushrooms
  • Optional: Fresh thyme and fresh parsley, chopped
  • 1 medium head cabbage, chopped
  • 1 can (46 ounces) reduced-sodium tomato juice
  • 1 cup instant brown rice
  • 1 can (6 ounces) tomato paste
  • 1/4 cup packed brown sugar
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1 teaspoon dried parsley flakes
  • 1/2 teaspoon pepper

Directions

  • 1. In a Dutch oven, cook the beef, onion and mushrooms over medium heat until meat is no longer pink, breaking beef into crumbles; drain. If desired, sprinkle with thyme and parsley.
  • 2. Add remaining ingredients. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and simmer until cabbage and rice are tender, 15-20 minutes.
