📋 Ingredients:

  • 🥩 1 lb ground beef
  • 🧅 1 small onion, finely chopped
  • 🌶️ 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 🌮 1 packet taco seasoning mix (or homemade taco seasoning)
  • 🌊 1/4 cup water
  • 🥬 1 small head of cabbage, thinly sliced (about 6 cups)
  • 🍅 1 can (14.5 oz) diced tomatoes, drained
  • 🌶️ 1 bell pepper, chopped (optional)
  • 🧀 1 cup shredded cheddar or Monterey Jack cheese
  • 🌿 Fresh cilantro, chopped (optional, for garnish)
  • 🍋 Lime wedges (optional, for serving)

📝 Directions:

  1. Cook the Ground Beef: 🥩 In a large skillet, cook the ground beef over medium heat until browned and fully cooked. Drain any excess fat.
  2. Add Onion and Garlic: 🧅 Add the chopped onion and minced garlic to the skillet with the beef. Cook for 2-3 minutes, or until the onion is soft and translucent.
  3. Season the Beef: 🌮 Stir in the taco seasoning and water. Mix well to coat the beef with the seasoning. Let it simmer for about 2 minutes.
  4. Add Cabbage and Tomatoes: 🥬 Add the thinly sliced cabbage and drained diced tomatoes to the skillet. Stir well to combine everything. Cover the skillet and cook for 8-10 minutes, or until the cabbage is tender. Stir occasionally.
  5. Add the Cheese: 🧀 Once the cabbage is tender, sprinkle the shredded cheese over the top of the skillet. Cover and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  6. Serve: 🍽️ Garnish with fresh cilantro and serve with lime wedges if desired. This dish is great on its own, or you can serve it with a side of sour cream, guacamole, or your favorite taco toppings.
