Ingredients

Protein

1 lb lean ground beef

Vegetables

½ medium onion, chopped

2 cloves garlic, minced

3 cups chopped cabbage

Canned Goods

15 oz canned diced tomatoes

8 oz canned tomato sauce

Seasonings & Cheese

2 teaspoons Italian seasoning

2 teaspoons salt

1½ cups shredded cheddar cheese

Garnish

Minced parsley

Instructions

Place ground beef in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook, breaking it apart, until it begins to brown.

When the beef is halfway cooked, add the chopped onion and minced garlic. Continue cooking until the beef is fully browned and the onions have softened.

Add chopped cabbage, diced tomatoes, tomato sauce, Italian seasoning, and salt. Stir well to combine.

Cover and cook for 15 minutes, or until the cabbage reaches your preferred tenderness.

Remove from heat. Sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the top and let stand for 5 minutes to melt.

Garnish with minced parsley before serving.

Notes

Cheddar can be swapped for mozzarella, Monterey Jack, or any preferred cheese.

For extra heat, add crushed red pepper flakes.

To lower sodium, reduce added salt or use no-salt-added canned tomatoes.
