Ingredients
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 pound ground beef
1 onion – medium, chopped
2 teaspoons salt
¼ teaspoon black pepper
1 tablespoon fresh garlic – minced
1 teaspoon paprika
½ teaspoon dried thyme
⅛ teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 can diced tomatoes – well drained
1 green cabbage – medium, roughly chopped
1 ½ cup cheddar – shredded, divided
STEP 1
Preheat the oven to 400°F. Grease a 2-quart (7 X 11-inch) baking dish.
STEP 2
In a large, deep skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the ground beef, onion, salt, and pepper. Cook until the beef is browned, about 5 minutes, stirring and breaking up the meat with a wooden spoon.
Add the garlic, paprika, thyme, and cayenne and cook for 30 seconds, stirring
STEP 3
Add the drained tomatoes and chopped cabbage. Continue to cook, stirring often, until the cabbage is tender, about 5 minutes.
Turn the heat off and stir in one cup of the shredded cheese.
STEP 4
Using a slotted spoon, transfer the mixture to the prepared baking dish. Sprinkle it with the remaining cheese.
Bake, uncovered, until the casserole is bubbly and the cheese is browned, 20-30 minutes.
Let the casserole rest for 10 minutes before serving.
