Unstuffed Cabbage - Vegetarian

Cabbage. Had some on hand needing to be used.

Here's what I did:

Shred cabbage. Put it in a casserole dish. Add 1/2 - 1 c. rice. Cover with veggie burgers (I used homemade black bean vegetarian burgers). Cover with a sweet and sour type tomato sauce, extra liquidy, as the rice will soak up a lot of liquid. (My sauce was 2 c. water (maybe more), 250 g tomato paste. 4-5 Tablespoons lemon juice, 3 T. sugar, salt and pepper. Mix well)

Bake, covered, at 425 F, for 1 -1.5 hrs. Serve hot.

Here is a basic recipe for veggie burgers: black beans, already soaked and cooked. Sauteed onion and garlic. ground flaxseed soaked in hot water, whole wheat flour, some oat bran, salt, pepper, parsley, cayenne pepper, whatever other spices you like. Combine all ingredients in a food processor and pulse till semi-smooth. Form burgers (whatever size you like best) and place on a well-greased baking pan. Flip each burger, so both sides now have a touch of oil on them. Bake at 425 for about 25 min.
