I like to think of this as a vegetable-rich (but not overwhelming, should you be trying to entice the hesitant) baked ziti where the ziti is replaced by giant beans.

The World’s Best Braised Cabbage

Cabbage heads come in a range of sizes. If yours weighs more than 2 pounds—check your grocery receipt for its weight if you don’t have a kitchen scale—lob off part of it and use that portion for another purpose.
