Another one pot, under-an-hour recipe– low carb, yet filling. Prepare as directed, or spice it up at your discretion.

Quick & Easy: Ground Beef & Cabbage Casserole

1 or 1.5 lb. lean ground beef
1 small cabbage (2 lb.)
1 15.8 oz. can petite diced tomatoes
1/4 C. dried minced onion
2 cloves fresh garlic, minced
8 oz. water
fresh ground pepper
1/2 t. salt

Core cabbage, slice and chop into 1″ square pieces. Brown ground beef in large pot, seasoning with fresh ground pepper. When beef is browned, drain if necessary, and add diced tomatoes, onion, garlic, and water. Bring to just boiling. Reduced heat to medium and add cabbage. Cook until cabbage is tender, stirring frequently. Makes about 8 servings.

Note: Optionally, 1/8 tsp. of caraway seed, ground between the fingers before adding, brings an interesting flavor dimension to the cabbage.
