Steps:

• Add onion and bell peppers to the same pot with meat drippings. Saute over medium-high heat for 3 to 4 minutes. Add garlic and cook until all vegetables are slightly softened and fragrant, being careful not to burn, about 1 minute more. Pour in beef broth, diced tomatoes, cabbage, and carrots.
• Combine tomato sauce, brown sugar, vinegar, tarragon, and Worcestershire in a separate bowl. Stir until sugar is dissolved and add to the pot along with red pepper flakes. Season with salt and pepper.

Steps:

• when beef is done add cabbage, onion, carrots, more salt, pepper, paprika, onion powder, cayenne, garlic powder, apple juice, tomatoes, bay leaf, tomato sauce, Cholula, beef base and mix.
• add some stock but don't over fill instapot.
• put lid on and set to high pressure 45 minutes.
• release pressure naturally or manually.
• using a ladle transfer your soup to a large stock pot.
• add more stock to your desired consistency. It will be stew like out of your instapot and I like a soup more than a stew so I add at least an additional 2 qt stock and bring back to a boil.
• in a small bowl take half a ladle so you can taste for salt/sweet/heat. If it's bland to you add a tsp of salt and mix. It will gain saltiness as the soup reduces so don't over salt. If you can't taste any sweetness add a 1/2 C apple juice. If it's there isn't enough heat add a bit more cholula and cayenne. The mexican hot sauce will help with acid too.

Steps:

• Place the cabbage in a greased 2-1/2-qt. baking dish. In a large skillet, cook beef and onion over medium heat until meat is no longer pink; drain. Stir in the rice, salt if desired and pepper; spoon over cabbage. , Combine soup and water; pour over beef mixture. Cover and bake at 350° for 40-50 minutes or until rice and cabbage are tender. Uncover; sprinkle with cheese. Bake 5-10 minutes longer or until the cheese is melted.

Steps:

• Saute onion and garlic in a large skillet for about a minute. Add meat and cook, stirring often, until meat is no longer pink. Drain well and return to pan.
• Meanwhile, remove tough outer leaves from cabbage & remove core. Shred cabbage if not using a bag of shredded cabbage.
• Add cabbage into pan and saute with the meat just until the cabbage begins to soften.
• Add remaining ingredients and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and allow to simmer until rice is done. You can keep this on low for a long time if you like or even toss everything into a crock pot and keep on low.
• To serve, ladle into bowls and garnish with a dollop of sour cream if desired. Remember- whoever finds the bay leaf is the lucky one! Just do not eat it!
