2 T olive oil 2 lg onions, sliced 8 c cabbage, shredded (1 small head) salt 6 lg cloves garlic, chopped 2 ts ground cumin 2 c long-grain white rice 1 qt vegetable stock or water 1/2 ts hot red pepper flakes 1 ts dried oregano 14 1/2 oz can diced tomatoes, drained freshly ground black pepper
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. In a large casserole or Dutch oven, heat the oil over medium heat. Add the onions and saute until softened, about 5 minutes.

Remove from the heat, cover, and bake 30 minutes, or until the rice is tender. Taste and adjust the seasonings. Serve hot.
