Ground Beef and Chopped Cabbage — Don’t LOSE This Recipe!🛒 Ingredients1 lb ground beef1 small cabbage, chopped1 can (15 oz) diced tomatoes (with their juices)1 cup onions, finely chopped2 cloves garlic, minced1 tbsp bouillon powder (beef or chicken)1 tbsp olive oil or butter (for cooking)½ tsp freshly ground black pepper (or to taste)½ cup water (optional, if needed for steaming)Optional: A pinch of red pepper flakes or paprika for a subtle kick and vibrant color.🍳 InstructionsBrown the Beef:Heat the olive oil (or butter) in a large, deep skillet over medium heat. Add the ground beef, breaking it up with a wooden spoon, and cook until completely browned and no longer pink (about 5–7 minutes). Drain any excess grease if desired.Sauté the Aromatics:Add the chopped onions and minced garlic to the skillet with the beef. Sauté for 3 to 4 minutes until the onions become translucent and the garlic is fragrant.Season and Add Tomatoes:Sprinkle the bouillon powder, black pepper (and red pepper flakes/paprika, if using) over the mixture. Pour in the can of diced tomatoes with their juices. Stir well to combine all the flavors.Incorporate the Cabbage:Gradually add the chopped cabbage to the skillet. It might look like a lot at first, but it will wilt down quickly as it cooks. If the mixture seems a bit dry, pour in the half cup of water to help it steam.Simmer to Perfection:Cover the skillet with a lid and reduce the heat to medium-low. Let it simmer gently for 15 to 20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the cabbage is perfectly tender, the flavors are well blended, and the sauce has nicely thickened.✨ Serving Suggestion:Serve hot straight from the skillet! This dish is absolutely delicious on its own as a comforting, low-carb meal, but it also pairs wonderfully alongside warm white rice or crusty bread. Enjoy!
