Ground Beef and Cabbage Recipe

When I mentioned to my husband that we were having "Ground Beef & Cabbage" for dinner, he gave me a skeptical look. To our surprise, not only did he enjoy it, but so did our very choosy children! I made minor adjustments by adding garlic to the cabbage mix and using 2 cans of tomatoes based on recommendations from other users. I believe that using a half head of cabbage with one can of tomatoes would suffice. For the next time, I plan on preparing this dish with all the specified ingredients, including garlic, 2 cans of Italian diced tomatoes, and half a pound of Italian sausage. This recipe is incredibly simple, budget-friendly, and satisfying for the whole family, not to mention delicious! Don't forget to sprinkle some red pepper flakes and serve it with Texas toast on the side! Yum! Thank you for sharing this great recipe!

Simple, yet it provides the familiar feeling of "comfort" food without overwhelming richness. I decided to switch out the Italian seasoning for a combination of one teaspoon of cumin and one teaspoon of paprika for a bolder flavor, and I tossed in some fresh tomatoes during the final 10 minutes of cooking. I also opted for Worcestershire sauce in the meat mixture instead of salt. Currently enjoying it over a bed of rice (gotta have my carbs sometimes). Thanks for the fantastic inspiration!

I opted to sauté the onions, garlic, and ground beef in a pan with herbs instead of boiling the meat. I then added cabbage and tomatoes, covered the pan, and let it cook for 30 minutes. The dish was served with polenta and topped with a sprinkle of parmesan cheese.

I was running late tonight and needed a quick, satisfying meal that wasn't heavy and definitely not spaghetti (my husband’s favorite). I stumbled upon this recipe and luckily had all the ingredients in my kitchen in some form. With only half a head of cabbage and a can of diced tomatoes, it turned out perfectly. I cooked the ground beef separately as it was quite fatty. I sautéed onions, garlic, and a bit of diced bacon in olive oil before adding the cabbage, then mixed in the tomatoes and cooked beef. I seasoned it with basil, oregano, parsley, red pepper, and paprika, adjusting to taste. At the end, I threw in some diced zucchini that needed to be used. We served it over rice, with my husband adding grated Parmesan because he likes to add it to anything even slightly Italian. He declared it a keeper and asked to include it in our regular dinner rotation. This recipe is a winner – affordable, simple, and quick. Thank you for sharing it!

I stumbled upon this recipe when searching for a new way to prepare ground beef. I happened to have some cabbage that needed to be used, so I decided to give it a go. After reading some of the reviews, I decided to add cumin, paprika, minced garlic, and two cans of diced tomatoes - one of which was seasoned with Italian basil herbs. I also followed the suggestion to serve it over rice. The end result was absolutely delicious! Next time, I'm considering adding a can of tomato sauce for a thicker consistency, but overall, the original recipe was a delightful surprise. The combination of cabbage, onions, and ground beef cooked in one pot created a harmonious blend of flavors that has earned a permanent spot in my recipe collection.

Absolutely adored it, definitely one of the finest meals my wife and I have ever savored. The depth and complexity of flavors were truly exceptional. Surprisingly affordable and simple to prepare as well, which was a pleasant surprise. It's intriguing how both of these aspects can coexist harmoniously. We decided to double the meat to suit our keto diet and added an extra tablespoon of thyme. Following the recipe, we cooked it in the slow cooker on high for 3.5 hours. Patience was key in allowing the cabbage to release its juices, but the end result was absolutely worth it. There was a significant amount of liquid at the end, but the taste was unbelievably delicious!

In its original form, I would rate this recipe as 3 stars. It was decent, but not particularly outstanding or tasty. Following suggestions from others, I decided to incorporate Worcestershire sauce, rice wine vinegar, and paprika, which really enhanced the flavors.

I have nothing negative to say about this recipe. It was absolutely perfect. I did modify it by adding two cans of diced tomatoes. I will definitely be making this again in the future.

This recipe is perfect for cabbage lovers! I made a few tweaks to enhance the flavors - I precooked ground beef with roasted garlic, onion, and added cabbage, diced tomatoes, carrots, and seasoning. A splash of vodka, a pinch of sugar, and butter brought everything together beautifully. Adding a side of rice or potatoes would make this a satisfying meal. Simple, affordable, and delicious - definitely going into my regular rotation!

I stumbled upon this recipe while searching for a way to use up some cabbage and ground beef, and I am blown away by how delicious and easy it is to make! It’s a one-pot wonder. Thank you mtgrapham2 for sharing! My husband absolutely loved it and even commented, "this is really tasty." After reading the reviews, I made a few minor changes. I used chuck beef, so I browned and drained the meat before setting it aside. Then, I sautéed the onion until translucent, added chopped garlic, and tossed in the cabbage for a few minutes. To elevate the flavors, I added Italian seasonings, a generous pinch of red pepper flakes, a teaspoon of Worcestershire sauce, a can of diced tomatoes with Italian seasonings, a can of tomato sauce, and a hint of sugar. After simmering for about 40 minutes and letting it rest for 10 minutes, I served it with rice. The dish had the perfect amount of sauce and the cabbage retained a delightful crunch. It was not only delicious but also very satisfying for a hearty dinner. This recipe is versatile and a great way to utilize ingredients on hand. It tasted just as good the next day. My only critique is that I wish I had taken a better photo, but it was so scrumptious that we ate it all before I could!

Wonderful and simple to prepare. I plan to increase the amount of tomatoes next time.

Rainy weather calls for a cozy dinner cooking on the stove. So simple yet so satisfying. Thank you!

Minor adjustments made by incorporating Worcestershire sauce and pepper flakes. It would have been better to sauté the beef with onions before adding cabbage and tomatoes. Additional seasoning was required. Despite that, the dish turned out delicious and was simple to make! Will definitely make it again.

It was satisfactory, but could use more spices to enhance the flavor.

Great starting point recipe... I followed several tips from reviews - I browned the meat first, sautéed extra onions (used 2 onions) along with it. Then I incorporated both canned tomato (1 can) and fresh, frozen, crushed tomato (1 cup). Added a mix of salt, pepper, Italian seasoning, garlic powder, red pepper flakes, turmeric, and Worcestershire sauce for some extra flavor. Even after these additions, I felt like it needed more depth (since cabbage was still the dominant ingredient), so I threw in a pound of sausage. It turned out "good", but I doubt it will be a go-to favorite. Nonetheless, it was a simple and budget-friendly dish - so that's a plus! I plan to give it another shot with some Parmesan cheese, as suggested, to see if that enhances the flavors.

Absolutely delicious and incredibly easy to make! I decided to throw in a can of mushrooms because I'm a huge fan, and it took it to the next level :)

Everything is perfect.

Absolutely delicious! I prepared a double batch to feed my family of 10 and served it with corn on the cob and corn bread as suggested. The meal was delightful, and 5 out of 7 kids loved it!
