Servings: 6 servings
- 1 small head of cabbage chopped
- 2 lbs of ground turkey 85/15 or ground beef
- 2 14.5 ounce cans diced tomatoes (not drained)
- 1 8 ounce can of tomato sauce
- 2 teaspoons of minced garlic
- 1 teaspoon of black pepper
In a large skillet, brown ground turkey with minced garlic.
Add remaining ingredients and combine well.
Let simmer for 25-30 minutes or until cabbage is is tender.
I didn't need to drain the turkey. If you do drain the turkey you may need to add about a 1/2 cup of water to the mixture for some liquid. If you make this with ground beef you will need to drain the grease and the 1/2 cup of water will be needed.
For a time saver you can use a bag of coleslaw.
You can add 1/2 cup of chopped onion to the beef mixture if you like onions. You can serve this over rice if you like.
