Cabbage & Ground Beef
Have you ever noticed that the bags of coleslaw so big said it would be hard to use all of it? I' usually better thinking outside the box but I just had to tell them that with coleslaw. I was on sale the other day so I decided to buy some and then figure out what to do with the rest of it later.
Yesterday I decided that I had to use up what I had left or it would go bad.
What I realized was its just cabbage and a few slivers of carrots. So of course any cabbage dish would be OK!
I decided to make what originally was a West African slow cooker meal. About time I got back to cooking what I have been cooking for years.
This what I made:
Ingredients:
1/4 pound ground beef
1/2 package cabbage salad
1 small can of tomato sauce
1 teaspoon chopped garlic
1/2 teaspoon Italian seasoning
1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
1/2 teaspoon fresh ground pepper
Directions:
1. Brown ground beef
2. Compile all ingredients in crock pot and cook
On low for 4 hours.
Are you wondering what Italian seasonings have to do with West Africa? Because it contains many of the spices used in West Africa.
So many herbs and spices are used in many different countries as this one is.
That is all there is to it.
Yes I simplified the recipe but it turned out great !
