salt and pepper
1 T paprika
1 onion, diced

2 stalks of celery, diced

1 can diced tomatoes (or of tomato sauce, I didn't have any but that's what I wanted to use)
1 quart chicken or beef broth
1/2 head of cabbage, core removed and the rest sliced into thin strips
1/2 c rice
Salt and pepper the beef, add the paprika, and mush in. Brown the beef in a small amount of olive oil, then remove to a bowl. Cook the onion, carrots, celery and garlic until starting to soften, then add the tomatoes, broth, and cabbage. Add the beef back in, and enough water to cover. Cook 15 minutes, then add the rice. Cook another 15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the rice is done and the cabbage is cooked to your liking. Add salt and pepper if necessary. Serves 4.
