(I am <em>more<\/em> of a sucker for these things right now, since my kitchen only has a single saucepan and two iron skillets. Moving from Alaska \u00e2\u2020\u2019 Virginia \u00e2\u2020\u2019 Pennsylvania is complicated.) <\/p>\n<p>This recipe contains a lot of meat, but it has even more vegetables (by volume, not by mass :)). 14 ounces of shredded cabbage is between 5 and 8 cups. So I&#8217;d feel OK about it even if I weren&#8217;t currently (temporarily) grain-free. If you&#8217;re <em>not<\/em> grain-free, you could definitely break this into more servings, and serve with rice; I think it would be really good that way. I&#8217;m also considering experimenting with chicken instead of beef, for this; I think the cabbage flavor won&#8217;t compliment it as well, but it seems worth a try.<\/p>\n<h3>Super Slaw<\/h3>\n<p>Ingredients:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>1 pound lean ground beef<\/li>\n<li>14 ounces shredded cabbage (coleslaw mix would also be good!)<\/li>\n<li>4-5 teaspoons (1.5 Tbsp) toasted sesame oil (less for less cabbage, more for more cabbage)<\/li>\n<li>2 minced garlic cloves (or 1 tsp minced garlic from a jar)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Sauce:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>1\/4-1\/2 teaspoon sweetener of choice (I used half a packet of Splenda, last time)<\/li>\n<li>1\/4 teaspoon onion powder<\/li>\n<li>1\/2 teaspoon ginger paste (I use a <em>very<\/em> generous half teaspoon)<\/li>\n<li>1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar (or whatever vinegar you&#8217;ve got; white and rice vinegar both work, too)<\/li>\n<li>2 tablespoons soy sauce (I use tamari)<\/li>\n<li>1\/2 teaspoon hot sauce (Frank&#8217;s is my go-to)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Brown, drain, and rinse the ground beef in a colander. You can mix up the sauce while the meat cooks. Using the same skillet, heat up the sesame oil*, and saut\u00c3\u00a9 the garlic and cabbage. The <a href=\"http:\/\/www.fatkidmemoirs.com\/crackslaw\/\">recipe I started with<\/a> for this said &#8220;until desired tenderness,&#8221; so, for illustration, <a href=\"https:\/\/sheldon-hess.org\/coral\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/03\/cabbage.jpg\">here&#8217;s what the cabbage looks like when I add the sauce and beef<\/a>. Stir in the sauce, and add the beef. Heat it all up (and I let it cook for another minute or three, to let the vinegar boil off ;)), and then serve! This makes two <em>really<\/em> generous servings. <\/p>\n<p>If you use sugar and break this into only two servings (and assuming you don&#8217;t bother draining the beef, because recipe calculators don&#8217;t know about things like that), each serving is 496 calories, 27 grams of fat, 13.8g carbohydrate, 4.8g fiber, 1 g sugar, 52.1 g protein. If you break it into three servings (same deal), it&#8217;s 331 calories, 18 g fat, 9.2 g carbohydrate, and 34.7 protein. Either way, it has tons of vitamin C and a fair bit of calcium, folate, manganese, and vitamin B6. <\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s also delicious enough that I make it once every couple of weeks. :)<\/p>\n<p>* It was in the fairly recent past that I learned how to tell when oil was hot enough.
