We recommend you get your ingredients ready before you start cooking. Once you're ready, here are the steps to making this delicious recipe

How to Make

  • Step 1: Brown ground beef with onion and bell pepper in a large skillet or pot with lid. Drain grease.

  • Step 2: Add garlic and seasonings. Stir.

  • Step 3: Add zucchini or cabbage and stir. Cover with lid and cook over medium heat for approximately 15 minutes until the zucchini is crisp tender (I don't add any water, the zucchini has enough). Stir about every 5 minutes.

  • Step 5: Great served with cottage cheese or topped with parmesan!
