Ingredients

• 1.75 pound ground beef (93/7)
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 yellow onion (large, diced)
• 4 clove garlic (minced)
• 1 green bell pepper (diced)
• 3 pound green cabbage (roughly chopped)
• 1 can diced tomatoes (14.5 ounce, undrained)
• 1 cup beef broth (low-sodium)
• 1 teaspoon dried oregano
• 1 teaspoon paprika
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

1. Heat olive oil in a large skillet or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add the ground beef and cook, breaking it apart with a spoon, until browned, about 7-9 minutes. Drain any excess fat.
2. Add the diced yellow onion, minced garlic, and diced green bell pepper to the skillet with the beef. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables soften, about 5-7 minutes.
3. Stir in the roughly chopped green cabbage, diced tomatoes (undrained), low-sodium beef broth, dried oregano, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Bring the mixture to a simmer.
4. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover the skillet, and let it simmer for 15-20 minutes, or until the cabbage is tender to your liking. Stir occasionally.
5. Taste and adjust seasonings as needed before serving warm. This dish reheats well for future meals.
