One-Pot Cabbage Casserole

[1 SP per serving] As a Ukrainian, I love cabbage rolls a little too much. Recently, I was introduced to the German version of cabbage rolls, and I have to say they do hit the spot. This is an easier version of a German cabbage roll; skip the rolling and make it all in a single pot! With fall firmly in place here in Western Canada, it is time to start with the comfort food that "sticks to your ribs and warms you up from the inside" as my mother would say.

Information

  • Makes: 8 servings
  • Source: Skinny Recipes
  • Prep: 5 min     Cook: 35 min

Ingredients

2 lbs 99% fat-free ground turkey breast 0 SP
1 tsp table salt, to taste 0 SP
1 tsp black pepper, to taste 0 SP
1 medium onions, chopped 0 SP
1 cup cauliflower rice, or riced cauliflower 0 SP
1½ cup uncooked cabbage, 3 hand-fulls, chopped 0 SP
8 oz canned tomato sauce 0 SP
2 cups water 0 SP
14 oz no salt added diced tomatoes, canned, undrained 0 SP
1 cup shredded fat-free Cheddar cheese 4 SP

Instructions

  1. Season and brown ground turkey and onions. Drain off grease.
  2. Once onions are clear, add cauliflower rice, cabbage, tomato sauce, 2 cups of water (or use tomato sauce cans) and diced tomatoes. Stir.
  3. Let it come to a boil and then reduce heat to medium low and cover to simmer for about 20 minutes or until rice and cabbage is soft.
  4. Once cooked, top with cheese and cover with the lid to melt a few minutes.

Notes

The original recipe called for White Rice and Ground Beef. I recommend replacing the rice with cauliflower rice (pureed or riced) and replacing the beef with ground turkey. These changes will reduce the points from 5 to 2.
