Carne Picada con Repollo - Ground Beef with Cabbage

             No Carb - Low Carb?  This one pot meal is so delicious you will eat it day and night!! 






Ingredients:

1lb Lean Ground Beef / Chuck
1 Cup Yellow Sweet Onion (diced/sliced) 
2 ea Zucchini (sliced)
2 ea Yellow Squash (sliced)
3-4 ea Roma Tomatoes (cut/diced)  
1/2 head of Cabbage (cut/sliced)
2 cubes of Knorr Beef 
1/4 tsp Fajita Seasoning
2 pinches of Garlic Powder
1/8 tsp of Lemon Pepper
1/4 tsp of Adobo


Directions:
Heat Pan and add ground Beef / Chuck until lightly browned (still slightly raw). Drain grease (since it's still slightly raw it will release additional grease, it's ok. You will need the little extra to release the flavors of the additional ingredients). Add Knorr beef cube, and additional seasonings, allow to cook into meat. Add Onions and cook for about a minute mixing it thoroughly, Lower heat. Add Cabbage a little at a time (it won't all fit at one time) Cover to steam for about 3 minutes. (this will give you more room to add more cabbage). Continue to add cabbage Mixing each time until it's all done, add Zucchinni, and Squash combined a little at a time like the cabbage (don't forget to Mix), Finally add The Roma Tomatoes, mix Cover, remove from heat and Serve.





Original Style Stuffed Jalapeno's

Jalapeno's

Remove Seeds
Arrange on Pan
Fill w/Cream Cheese
Wrap in Bacon (I use Center Cut)
Bake at 400 for 20 to 30 Min until Desired Crispiness
Serve on a plate lined with Paper towels






Hint:

  1. For Hotter Jalapeno's Choose the ones that have age lines. The more age lines the hotter the jalapeno.
  2. The thicker the bacon the harder the crunch.
  3. Generic Cream Cheese will curdle.
  4. Use Non-stick foil so your jalapenos don't stick to foil.
