Preparation
  1. In a large pot, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté until it becomes translucent (about 5 minutes).
  2. Add the minced garlic and sauté for another minute until fragrant.
  3. Add the ground beef to the pot, breaking it apart with your spatula. Cook until browned, about 6 to 8 minutes. Drain any excess fat if necessary.
  4. Stir in the chopped cabbage and cook for about 3-4 minutes, allowing it to wilt down.
  5. Add the diced tomatoes, beef broth, uncooked rice, and Worcestershire sauce. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  6. Bring the soup to a gentle boil, then reduce the heat and let it simmer for about 25 minutes, or until the rice is cooked through. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
  7. Ladle the soup into bowls, and don’t forget to add your favorite toppings!

Notes

For a deeper flavor, let the soup simmer longer. Keep an eye on the rice to avoid overcooking. Store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 3 days or freeze for up to 3 months. Reheat on the stovetop, adding a splash of water or broth if needed.
