One Pot Recipe: Un-stuffed Cabbage Rolls


One of my ultimate cravings has always been pasta. However, pasta isn't exactly the healthiest option around. It's loaded with empty calories, tons of carbohydrates, and most contain nasty chemicals on top of it all, with little to no nutritional value. So, I wanted to find a recipe that would satisfy my pasta craving without the junk. And of course, it had to be yummy and something my kids would eat. This is so good that my kids call it "Pasta soup" and ask for seconds and thirds. An added bonus is that it is great leftover the next day for lunch too. Note: I always strive for organic ingredients, but use what your budget allows. 

Ingredients:

1 package organic ground beef
1 large head of organic green cabbage
2 cans organic diced tomatoes
1 can organic tomato sauce
1 tablespoon organic coconut oil
1 tablespoon minced garlic
1 cup water

Seasonings (all amounts to taste):
Himalayan Pink Salt
Organic Italian Seasoning
Minced Onion
Pepper
Garlic

Parmesan Cheese for garnish

Directions:

In large stockpot add coconut oil, minced garlic, minced onion, and ground beef. While the ground beef is browning, chop your head of cabbage and rinse. Once the beef has browned through, add your chopped cabbage and your canned tomatoes, water and sauce and all spices. Bring to a boil and boil for about 5 minutes. Then, simmer for about 30 minutes more, until cabbage is tender. Serve with Parmesan cheese for garnish and enjoy.
