1 head cabbage (about 2 lbs.)
6 slices bacon
1 med. onion (about 1/2 cup chopped)
1 c. uncooked rice (Minute rice or cook regular rice 15 minutes)
1 1/2 meat loaf mixture (ground beef and pork, pork very important)
1 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. pepper
1 (15 oz.) can spaghetti sauce with mushrooms
3 c. water

Shred cabbage and spread half in greased shallow baking deep pan 13 x 9 x 2. Saute bacon, remove and drain. Stir onion and rice into drippings in pan, cook stirring constantly until onion is soft and rice is lightly brown. Omit rice if you cook it. Spoon over cabbage. Shape meatloaf mixture into large patty in same pan. Brown 5 minutes on each side, then break into chunks. Spoon over rice mixture in baking dish. Sprinkle with salt and pepper and cover with remaining cabbage.

Heat spaghetti sauce with water to boiling in pan. Pour over cabbage stirring lightly with fork, so sauce will flow to bottom. Top with bacon slices and cover with foil.

Bake in hot oven 400 degrees, 50 minutes or until rice and cabbage are tender. Uncover, bake 10 minutes longer to crisp bacon.
