    Like Velveeta Rotel ~ Main Dish

    Source of Recipe

    cjack1 @ Low Carb Friends

    Recipe Introduction

    Level 1 ~ Pro/Fats This has a strange title and it looks strange too! But for having only 4 ingredinets - it sure is TASTY! Again - my husband loves this, I thought it was great. Rather than posting my notes at the end, I'm just going to post it the way I made it. This is definitely cjack1's recipe though - I just increased the amounts.

    List of Ingredients

    2 pounds hamburger
    2 (10 ounce) cans of *Rotel, "Original" flavor
    1 small head green cabbage, thinly sliced
    16 ounces American Cheese
    Salt to taste


    Recipe

    Brown hamburger and drain. Add Rotel tomatoes, salt and cabbage. Simmer, covered until cabbage is tender 20-30 minutes. Here I drained out the clear juice that cooked off the cabbage. I wanted the mixture fairly "dry". Add cheese and mix well after cheese melts.

    Add a dollop of sour cream after you've dished it up - Mmmm good!

    ~ Notes ~

    cjack states that you can buy "Angel Hair Cole Slaw" mix at Kroger and Walmart. Its only ingredient is green cabbage. My Walmart doesn't carry it...

    I recommend using the American cheese in this recipe, versus something like Cheddar. The American cheese will melt very smoothly like Velveeta. I got my cheese in the deli at the grocery store.

    *Rotel - If you're not familiar with Rotel, here's their URL that will show you what it looks like. If you cannot find it - it's simply diced tomatoes with green chiles. It's not hot/spicy - but it does have a very nice flavor. Definitely not the same as just adding a can of diced tomatoes.
