Ingredients
  

  • 1 lb ground beef Choose lean ground beef for a healthier option.
  • 1 medium yellow onion Chopped onions add sweetness and depth of flavor.
  • 1 medium bell pepper Add any color you like for some crunch and color.
  • 1 small head cabbage Core and chop for the best texture.
  • 1 14 oz can diced tomatoes This adds moisture and acidity to balance flavors.
  • 2 tsp Tony Chachere's creole seasoning A flavorful seasoning blend enhances the dish's taste.
  • 2 tsp garlic powder Garlic powder provides aromatic warmth without overpowering the meal.
  • 2 tsp smoked paprika Adds a lovely smokiness to complement the beef.
  • 1 tsp black pepper Freshly cracked black pepper enhances all the flavors beautifully.
  • 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese Melty cheese brings richness and completes the dish perfectly.

Method
 

  1. Brown the Beef: Start by heating a large skillet over medium heat and browning the ground beef until it's fully cooked. If there’s more than a few tablespoons of fat, drain the excess to keep your dish light yet flavorful.
  2. Sauté Vegetables: Next, add the chopped yellow onion and bell pepper to the skillet with the beef. Cook them together for about 3-4 minutes until they become soft and aromatic, enhancing the overall flavor profile.
  3. Add Cabbage and Seasonings: Stir in the chopped cabbage, diced tomatoes, and all seasoning into your skillet with the browned beef mixture. Cover with a lid and let it cook for 20-25 minutes on low heat, stirring occasionally until everything is tender.
  4. Melt Cheddar Cheese: Once everything is cooked through, sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese over the top of your skillet dish. Cover it again briefly until the cheese melts into bubbly perfection.
  5. Serve Your Dish: Finally, serve your scrumptious Cabbage Roll Skillet hot from the pan! Enjoy it alone or pair it with rice for those who are not following a keto diet; either way, it's sure to be a hit!
