Keto Cabbage Rolls

Keto Cabbage Rolls are a delicious low-carb alternative to traditional stuffed cabbage, filled with savory ground beef and aromatic herbs. This dish is perfect for a satisfying meal that keeps you on track with your keto lifestyle.

Ingredients

• Green cabbage - 1 medium head
• Ground beef - 300 grams
• Cauliflower rice - 100 grams
• Onion - 1 small, finely chopped
• Garlic - 2 cloves, minced
• Tomato sauce (no sugar added) - 120 ml
• Olive oil - 1 tablespoon
• Dried oregano - 1 teaspoon
• Salt - 1 teaspoon
• Black pepper - 1/2 teaspoon
• Parmesan cheese - 30 grams, grated (optional)
• Fresh parsley - 1 tablespoon, chopped (for garnish)

Steps

1. Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F).
2. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Carefully remove the core from the cabbage and place it in the boiling water for about 5 minutes to soften the leaves. Remove the cabbage and let it cool.
3. In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and minced garlic, sautéing until translucent, about 3-4 minutes.
4. In a mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, cauliflower rice, sautéed onion and garlic, oregano, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well combined.
5. Carefully peel off the cabbage leaves. Place about 2-3 tablespoons of the beef mixture in the center of each leaf, fold in the sides, and roll tightly.
6. Spread half of the tomato sauce on the bottom of a baking dish. Arrange the cabbage rolls seam side down in the dish and top with the remaining tomato sauce.
7. Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes.
8. Remove the foil, sprinkle grated Parmesan cheese on top if using, and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
9. Garnish with fresh parsley before serving.
