Ingredients

  • 1/2 head green cabbage sliced in shreds
  • 2 tablespoons butter unsalted
  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 3 tablespoons taco seasoning mix
  • 1 teaspoon dried minced onion
  • 1 1/2 cups Mexican cheese blend

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Preheat oven to 350°F.
  2. In a large skillet add 1 tablespoon of butter and saute cabbage on medium high heat until the cabbage softens. Remove from heat and place cabbage in a separate dish.
  3. In the same skillet add the remaining tablespoon of butter and cook ground beef breaking up meat as it cooks. Add taco seasoning, onion and stir until meat is cooked. If the meat is dry add up to 1/4 cup of water.
  4. Return cabbage to skillet and season with salt and pepper. Fold in 1/2 cup of cheese.
  5. Top skillet with remaining cheese and place in the oven. Cook until cheese melts (10 minutes).

Notes

  • You can use a pre-sliced package of coleslalw if you perefer. I find that the cabbage is too thin and gets mushy quick, so watch the cooking time closely.
