1 tablespoon olive oil (14 grams)
½ large onion, chopped
1 pound lean ground beef
1 pound lean ground pork
6 cups beef broth (48 ounces)
24 ounces diced tomatoes, undrained
24 ounces crushed tomatoes, undrained
1 cup uncooked white rice (200 grams)
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce (17 grams)

2 bay leaves
2 sprigs fresh thyme, snipped
1 head of cabbage (about 1 pound), chopped into small pieces

Instructions

Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Once the oil is hot, add the chopped half onion and sauté for 2 minutes until softened and fragrant.
Add 1 pound each of lean ground beef and lean ground pork to the pot. Cook, breaking apart the meat with a spoon, until no longer pink. Drain any excess fat from the pot.
Stir in 6 cups beef broth, 24 ounces diced tomatoes, 24 ounces crushed tomatoes, 1 cup uncooked white rice, 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce, 1 ½ teaspoons salt, ½ teaspoon ground black pepper, 1 teaspoon garlic powder, 1 teaspoon chili powder, 2 bay leaves, 2 sprigs of fresh thyme, and 1 head chopped cabbage.
Bring the soup mixture to a low boil, then reduce heat to maintain a gentle simmer. Cover the pot and cook for 25-30 minutes until the rice is tender and the cabbage is cooked through but still slightly crisp.
