Calories: 194.9 • Fat: 7.7 g • Protein: 10.5 g • Carb: 23 g • Fiber: 5.5 g • Sugar: 2 g
Sodium: 291.2 mg (without salt)

Ingredients:
2 tsp olive oil, divided
1 lb. 95% lean ground beef
1 large onion, chopped fine
1 tbsp finely minced garlic
1/2 tsp. dried thyme
1 tsp sweet Hungarian Paprika
salt and fresh ground black pepper to taste
1 1/2 heads green cabbage, coarsely chopped
1 can (14.5 oz.) petite dice tomatoes with juice
1 can (15 oz.) tomato sauce
1/4 cup water
2 cups cooked brown rice
2 cups low-fat mozzarella cheese (Sargento)

Instructions:
Preheat oven to 350°F. Spray a large glass casserole dish with non-stick spray. (My dish was 13" x 10")
Heat a large frying pan on medium heat; add ground beef and cook until it's browned and cooked through,
breaking it apart as it cooks. Remove ground beef and set aside.
In the same pan, add 1 tsp olive oil, chopped onion and cook over medium heat until the onion is
translucent and starting to brown, about 5 minutes. Add the minced garlic, dried thyme, and paprika and
cook about 2 minutes more. Then add the diced tomatoes with juice, tomato sauce, and ground beef. Add
water to the pan. Simmer until it's hot and slightly thickened, about 15-20 minutes.
While it simmers, cut cabbage in half, cut out the core, and remove any wilted outer leaves; chop the
cabbage coarsely into 1 inch pieces.
Heat remaining olive oil in a large frying pan or dutch oven; add the cabbage and cook over medium-high
heat until the cabbage is wilted and about half cooked, turning it over several times so it all wilts and cooks.
Season with salt and fresh-ground black pepper.
When the meat and tomato sauce mixture has cooked and thickened a bit, stir in the 2 cups of cooked rice
and gently combine.
Spray casserole dish with non-stick spray and the layer half the cabbage, half the meat mixture, remaining
cabbage, and remaining meat mixture. Cover tightly with foil and bake 40 minutes, or until the mixture is just
starting to bubble on the edges.
Remove foil and sprinkle on cheese (if using.) Bake uncovered an additional 20 minutes, or until the
cheese is melted and starting to slightly brown. Serve hot.

Freezer friendly if you have leftovers. To reheat, thaw overnight in the refrigerator and then either microwave
until hot or heat in the oven in a glass dish covered with foil.

    Shirataki Noodle in a Beef Stir fry:

    Shirataki noodles have to be rinsed under cold water for a while, then I put them overnight in a beef boullion.

    Stir fry consisted of beef (but you can do chicken) onions, red peppers, garlic,sprouts, zuccini or whatever else you use.

    Seriously, DELICIOUS and filling. The Shirataki noodles really are a great sub to any other asian noodles.

    LOVE this Hungry Girl recipe for a chocolate fix!!!

    Yum Yum Brownie Muffins

    (1 Muffin, or 3 minis - 181 calories, 3.5g fat, 37g carbs, 2g fiber, 2g protein -- PointsPlus® value 5*)

    This super-simple 2-ingredient recipe is a Weight Watchers Fave!

    1 box devil's food cake mix
    1 can solid pack pumpkin (15 oz.)

    Directions:
    Mix the two ingredients together. Don't add anything else that may be mentioned on the box, such as eggs, oil, or water. The mixture will be very thick and you will be tempted to add in other things to make the batter smoother. DO NOT DO THIS AS IT WILL RUIN EVERYTHING! Place batter into muffin tins (or mini muffin tins) lined with paper, or sprayed with non-stick spray. Bake at 400 degrees for 20 minutes. Makes 12 regular or 36 mini muffins.
