1 lb of ground beef
1 lb bulk seasoned sausage
1 medium onion
1 medium bell pepper ( I used a red bell pepper )
1 stalk of celery thinly sliced
2 cloves of garlic crushed
1 cup rice
1/4 cup of water
2 ( 10 ounce ) cans of Rotel tomatoes with Green Chile's ( To spice it up use one can of hot Rotel )
1 medium head of cabbage, coarsely shredded
16 oz Velveeta Cheese
2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
1/2 stick of butter
1 TB flour
1 cup of milk
Brown meat and sausage in dutch oven. Drain fat; add onion, pepper, celery, garlic, and rice. Cook for 5 minutes. Add water, tomatoes, and cabbage cook for 10 minutes.
Pour into a 9 x 13 baking dish. In a separate bowl, microwave cheese and butter till melted. Stir in milk and flour. Pour over mixture.
With fork push cheese around to get it down into the casserole. Do not stir, just push fork in and move back and forth. Bake at 350f for 45 minutes covered. Uncover, cover in cheddar cheese and bake for 15 minutes. Let sit for 15 minutes, then serve. Great with cornbread, it also freezes well.
Bon Appetite !
