Unstuffed Cabbage Rolls

Our friend Vickie Ennis shared this recipe with us from budget101. As usual, we modified it a bit.

Ingredients:

1.5 pounds of ground turkey
1 tablespoon of coconut oil
2 cans of beans (we used cannelloni)
1 large onion, diced
2 cloves of garlic, minced
1 cabbage, chopped (we were lazy and used four bags of shredded cabbage)
2 cans of diced tomatoes
1 can of tomato sauce
1 teaspoon of ground black pepper
1 teaspoon of salt

Directions:

Brown the turkey.
In a crockpot, add the diced tomato and beans, followed by the turkey. Then add all the other ingredients, with the exception of the cabbage. Let it cook for a few hours, stirring every once in a while. About an hour before serving, add the cabbage (we did this because the cabbage was shredded and we didn't want it to cook down too much) and stir this in. When done, serve in a big bowl.

This was a bit bland (leftovers were better). I added hot sauce to mine. The wife added Greek seasoning to hers, and she said that made it much better. Budget101 calls for adding rice; I would recommend the cauliflower rice to stay on a slow carb diet.
