What's For Dinner?

I am about to pluck my final head of cabbage from my garden.
So far, I made a fabulous and simple cabbage and apple slaw, an Asian sweet and sour cabbage side dish, gave one to a generous babysitter, and another to my sister for chicken noodle soup (don't knock it till you try it, it's an awesome addition to the classic!)

So, here's what I am making tomorrow. This is one of our favorites, and I am generally not a casserole person, especially those involving soup. But, this is good. I am sure many families have some version of this recipe, but I thought I would share ours...

"Cabbage Casserole"
1 pound ground beef
1 large onion, chopped
2 cans tomato soup (you can use tomato sauce if you like that flavor better, we don't)
2 cups cooked white or brown rice
1 medium head of cabbage
Salt and pepper to taste

Preheat oven to 350
Brown beef and onion, drain.
Chop cabbage, blanch in boiling water for 3 to 4 minutes, drain
In a bowl, mix both cans of soup with 1 can of water, whisk
Cook rice according to package

In a 9x13 pan, layer half of the cabbage, beef, rice, soup, salt and pepper and repeat
Bake at 350 about 15 minutes until bubbling.

What are you making tonight??
