'Unstuffed' Cabbage with a Kick image

This is an alteration on a typical stuffed cabbage recipe. It's healthy, low-fat, low-carb, and a bit spicy. You can't go wrong with this recipe! You may omit the red pepper and cayenne if you do not like spicy foods, or increase like we do! We serve this over brown rice to make it more of a whole meal. We love it! I used roasted garlic-flavored tomato sauce for extra 'kick.'

Time 50m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 pound ground turkey
1 tablespoon olive oil
½ tablespoon onion, diced
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 (14.5 ounce) can diced tomatoes
1 (8 ounce) can tomato sauce
1 tablespoon Italian seasoning
1 teaspoon dried basil
1 teaspoon red pepper flakes
½ teaspoon cayenne pepper
salt and ground black pepper to taste
1 head cabbage, cut into 1-inch squares

Steps:

  • Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir ground turkey in the hot skillet until browned and crumbly, 5 to 7 minutes; drain and discard grease. Transfer cooked turkey to a bowl.
  • Heat olive oil in the skillet over medium heat; saute onion in hot oil until translucent, about 5 minutes. Add garlic to onion; saute until fragrant, about 1 minute.
