Ingredients:

• 1 head of cabbage
• 2 pounds lean ground beef
• 1 1/2 onions
• 1 green pepper
• Salt, to taste
• Pepper, to taste
• Garlic powder, to taste
• Dill weed, to taste
• 1/2 cup rice
• 1/8 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)
• 1 1/2 cans of condensed tomato soup, diluted

Instructions:

1. Prepare Rice:

   • Cook rice according to package directions. Allow it to cool completely. Once cooled, mix the rice with a pinch of salt and pepper, garlic powder, and dill weed. Set aside.

2. Prep Cabbage:

   • Remove the tough ribs from the cabbage leaves and cut them into strips about 3 to 4 inches wide.

3. Prepare Roasting Pan:

   • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
   • Pour a portion of the diluted tomato soup into the bottom of a roasting pan, creating a thin layer to prevent sticking.

4. Layering:

   • Start by layering about one-third of the cabbage strips at the bottom of the roasting pan.
   • Next, spread half of the prepared rice mixture evenly over the cabbage layer.
   • Add another one-third of the cabbage strips on top of the rice, then generously pierce the cabbage leaves with a fork. This helps the flavors to permeate.
   • Pour half of the remaining diluted tomato soup over this layer.
   • Repeat the layering process with the remaining rice mixture and cabbage strips.

5. Final Layer:

   • Pour the remaining diluted tomato soup over the top layer of cabbage.
   • Sprinkle red pepper flakes on top for an extra kick, if desired.

6. Bake:

   • Cover the roasting pan with foil or a lid to seal in the flavors.
   • Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for approximately 2 1/2 hours, or until the cabbage turns a golden color and becomes tender.

7. Serve:

   • Once done, remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes.
   • Serve hot, garnished with fresh herbs if desired.
