Scale
Ingredients
- 1 pound lean ground beef
- 5 cups green cabbage, shredded or chopped
- 1/4 cup low-carb taco seasoning
- 1 tbsp dry minced onion
- 1/4 cup water
- 1 1/2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
Instructions
- Brown the Ground Beef: In a large skillet over medium heat, brown the ground beef until fully cooked, breaking it apart as it cooks. Drain off any excess fat to keep the dish lean.
- Add Remaining Ingredients: Stir in the shredded cabbage, low-carb taco seasoning, dry minced onion, and water. Mix everything well to combine the flavors evenly.
- Cook the Cabbage: Continue cooking and stirring occasionally until the cabbage is crisp-tender and softened, about 5 to 7 minutes, allowing it to absorb the seasonings.
- Melt the Cheese: Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the skillet mixture. Cover the skillet and let it sit for a couple of minutes until the cheese melts beautifully.
- Serve: Serve the cheesy taco cabbage skillet warm, enjoying its hearty and zesty flavors.
Notes
- Use lean ground beef to reduce fat content and enhance healthiness.
- Low-carb taco seasoning helps keep this dish keto-friendly; you can substitute with regular taco seasoning if preferred.
- Ensure cabbage is chopped finely for even cooking and a better texture.
- For a spicier kick, add a pinch of cayenne pepper or some chopped jalapeños.
- This dish pairs well with a side of sour cream or avocado slices for added creaminess.
