Instructions

1. In a large pot or Dutch oven, cook the ground beef over medium-high heat until browned and crumbled, 5-7 minutes. Drain any excess fat.

2. Add the diced onion and minced garlic to the pot and cook for 2-3 minutes, until the onion is translucent.

3. Add the chopped cabbage, diced tomatoes, tomato sauce, beef broth, uncooked rice, oregano, and basil. Stir to combine.

4. Bring the soup to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for 20-25 minutes, or until the rice is tender and the cabbage is softened.

5. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

6. Serve hot, garnished with fresh parsley or grated Parmesan cheese, if desired.

Notes

For a thicker soup, you can add an extra can of tomato sauce. If you prefer a creamier texture, stir in a few tablespoons of sour cream or Greek yogurt just before serving.
