Directions:
Add a little bit of olive oil to skillet. Cook diced onion til soft. Add ground beef and cook over medium heat tilno longer pink. Add garlic and cook 2 minutes or so, til fragrant. Drain any fat. Stir in tomatoes (including the juice), tomato paste, seasonings, and tomato sauce. Simmer, uncovered, about 10 minutes until thickened.

Remove from heat and add the cooked rice.

Meanwhile, coarsely chop cabbage. Heat 2 tbsp or so of olive oil to LARGE skillet and add the cabbage OR cook in two separate batches with about 1 tbsp olive oil each. Cook about 5-10, just until softened. Salt and pepper while cooking.

Spray casserole dish with cooking spray. Add 1/2 of the cooked cabbage and top with 1/2 of the meat mixture. Repeat layers. Cover with foil and bake at 375º for 45 minutes.

In a small bowl combing cheese, egg, and milk. Remove foil and top casserole with cheese mixture and bake uncovered an additional 20 minutes.
Personal Notes:
Personal Notes:
This is very good without the cheese on top if you don't have any!

I prefer to cook the cabbage in the skillet (maybe 20 minutes or so?) until it's completely cooked. Cuts down baking time a lot! If you're going to add the cheese topping, do it right away and bake it about 20 minutes.
