All right, everyone. We are going to
0:02
make a Frito's cowboy cabbage casserole
0:07
in the skillet.
0:11
Get your cabbage.
0:17
Don't forget your bag of Fritos. Yeah,
0:20
this is going to change how you make a
0:21
casserole. All right,
0:24
let's put these off to the side
0:27
and let's put this one together.
0:30
We're going to be using one pound of
0:33
ground beef. And we're just going to add
0:35
that to our large deep skillet.
0:40
We're going to put this on a medium high
0:41
heat.
0:44
And then we're going to break it up.
0:46
Now, I'm not going to use my meat
0:49
chopper because I want some pretty big
0:51
pieces of this meat in our dish today.
0:55
So, we're going to break it up and we're
0:57
going to start browning it up. All
0:59
right, we're going to let that do its
1:01
thing right now.
1:03
Let's chop up the bell pepper and yellow
1:05
onion because we're going to be adding
1:06
that to this ground beef as soon as it
1:08
starts getting browning up. Let's chop
1:12
these up.
1:14
Yeah, this is a cowboy kind of a skillet
1:18
meal and it's really delicious. full of
1:22
flavor, lots of stuff going on in it.
1:26
Kind of give it that cowboy feel, but a
1:28
cabbage skillet. All right. So, what I'm
1:32
going to do is just take a bell pepper
1:35
cuz they put those in cowboy dishes.
1:39
They're always in a chili, aren't they?
1:43
We'll get these diced up.
1:47
Now, I've already washed the bell
1:49
pepper, taken off the four ends of it,
1:52
and we're just going to cut it into
1:53
strips,
1:55
and then we'll cut those strips into
1:58
dices
2:00
as big as you want them or as small as
2:02
you want them. Now, if you want to add
2:05
different colored bell peppers to it,
2:07
you can do that. Now, once we get the
2:10
bell pepper diced, I will add that to
2:13
the ground beef and let it start
2:14
softening down.
2:21
We'll add in the pepper.
2:24
Just take your yellow onion and we're
2:25
going to do the same thing. We're just
2:26
going to take off both ends. Take off
2:28
that outer layer. Chop the onion in
2:30
half. And then we'll run slices through
2:32
it. And then cut those slices into
2:34
dices. Here we go.
2:36
Let's add this to the bell pepper into
2:39
the ground beef.
2:46
Now, the onion will melt down, but it
2:49
adds a nice bulkiness to the dish,
2:54
so it spreads it out, gives you more
2:57
meals along with that pepper in there.
3:02
All right, we're going to finish cooking
3:03
up the ground beef, get it nice and
3:06
brown and no longer pink, and then the
3:09
vegetables will be nice and softened
3:11
down.
3:14
You can see that the ground beef is all
3:16
browned up, broken up, and the peppers
3:18
and the onions are softened down. If you
3:21
have any excess grease in your pan, you
3:24
might want to get some paper towels and
3:26
drain it out. Just take them, fold it
3:28
up, place it in there, and just kind of
3:31
move it around.
3:33
My ground beef was very lean, so you can
3:36
see that there was hardly anything in
3:37
there. And if there was, then the
3:39
peppers and the onions kind of absorbed
3:41
it up. There we go.
3:44
Now, what we're going to do is start
3:45
flavoring this up. Getting some extra
3:47
ingredients in there. Cowboys love corn.
3:52
Got one can. I drained it. It's 14 oz
3:56
going in.
3:58
You can use frozen corn. We've got one
4:01
can of Rotel. Rotel is only diced
4:05
tomatoes with green chilies. This is 10
4:08
oz. If you don't like the green chilies
4:10
in there, then I would just use a can of
4:12
diced tomatoes.
4:15
We're going to put that in there. Juice
4:17
and all.
4:19
This is going to give you a taco flare
4:21
to this dish. Okay, we are using taco
4:24
seasoning.
4:26
Three tablespoons equals one packet that
4:29
you can get from your store. Mine's a
4:31
homemade blend, so I'll be using the
4:33
three tablespoons. Now, you can find all
4:36
of my recipes on my blog,
4:38
katherine'splates.com,
4:40
and it'll have my taco seasoning on
4:42
there, which is big batch taco
4:46
seasoning. And then you can make a big
4:47
batch like this right here. Look at
4:49
that. Look at that color in there.
4:52
Yep. Nothing artificial in there at all.
4:56
All natural. Now, when I make my batch,
5:00
I tend to keep the salt very minimal.
5:03
So, I'm going to add some salt.
5:07
We'll taste it along the way and see if
5:09
we need to adjust any of the seasonings.
5:12
And we're definitely going to put in
5:13
some black pepper. Don't the cowboys
5:15
love that?
5:18
Grab your spoon and mix this all
5:19
together.
5:22
All right,
5:24
grab a spoon and let's give this a try
5:26
before we start adding other things and
5:28
having other things happen to this.
5:31
Let's taste that and see if our flavors
5:32
are where we want them.
5:41
Mhm.
5:46
We got some good stuff happening in
5:48
there.
5:50
We're going to let that simmer for 5
5:53
minutes or so until we get our cabbage
5:55
chopped up.
5:57
And we're almost done, you guys. We got
5:59
a few more things to do. They're easy,
6:01
though. Here's my head of cabbage. Now,
6:04
if you've seen my Aldi haul, that's
6:06
where I've got my cabbage from. I took
6:08
off like two layers off the top, but
6:11
gave it a good rinse. I'm just going to
6:13
take my sharp knife,
6:16
do about four sides of the cabbage here,
6:20
and then we'll cut it into bite-sized
6:22
pieces. Now, I want to see the cabbage
6:24
in there. So, I'm just going to cut this
6:26
into bite-sized pieces.
6:31
Just like that. Right there. Now, what's
6:34
great about cabbage, it wilts down. It
6:38
may look a lot, but it's not.
6:43
Once this is simmered for about 5
6:45
minutes to get all those flavors kind of
6:46
pulled together. I mean, y'all, when I
6:49
broke this ground beef up, I mean, we
6:51
have big pieces like that cowboy style,
6:54
right? Let's add the cabbage.
7:04
You're going to need about three to four
7:06
cups of chopped cabbage for this recipe.
7:08
We've got it all in. And what I'm going
7:10
to do is take the spoon and I'm just
7:11
going to start moving that mixture from
7:13
the bottom onto the cabbage. We want
7:16
that cabbage to start wilting down.
7:20
Now, we're going to place a lid on and
7:22
let that cabbage get nice and tender to
7:25
the desired texture that you like.
7:27
Should take just a few minutes. And in
7:29
the meantime, what I'm going to do is
7:31
shred up cuz they like cheese.
7:35
8 oz of sharp cheddar cheese.
7:40
Look at that cheese, you guys.
7:44
Y'all want to try it? Take a few pieces.
7:48
Oh, there's somebody. What do y'all
7:50
think?
7:53
>> Good.
7:54
>> I'm going to take two green onions. I've
7:55
already washed them.
7:58
We'll get rid of the tops
8:01
and then we'll just slice them
8:04
all the way down to the greens.
8:11
Just keep moving your fingers back and
8:12
make sure you tuck them in.
8:15
That's the way I like my cabbage. Look
8:17
at that. Full of flavor. Let's top this
8:20
off. What we're going to do is top it
8:22
with cheese.
8:28
You may not need the full 8 oz,
8:31
but people can top it after they plate
8:32
it up. And then the fun ingredient is
8:35
you're going to need some Fritos.
8:41
There they are.
8:44
Have a little fun with your meal.
8:52
Mhm. Y'all want one? No.
8:55
Top
8:57
your skillet meal with them.
9:02
Leave them out. That way people can top
9:05
their dish with them.
9:07
Look at that. Yeah.
9:10
Don't forget the green onions. Jazz it
9:13
up.
9:16
Now I'm going to put the lid back on.
9:17
I'm going to let the residual heat melt
9:19
that cheese. I want a lot of green onion
9:22
on there.
9:27
There it is, you guys. Let's plate it up
9:29
because I'm eager to give that a try for
9:32
you.
9:35
Look at that.
9:39
Now, what's nice about this recipe is
9:41
that you can let people jazz up their
9:43
own dish. You can make it and then have
9:45
the Fritos, the cheese, and the green
9:47
onions out and just let people top their
9:49
own if you want to do that. Or make it
9:50
really pretty like that. It needs a
9:53
fork.
9:54
Let's give that a try.
10:05
Those
10:09
are for the people that don't like to
10:10
hear me chew.
10:16
That's all y'all have to say in the
10:18
comments. Huh. You chew too loud. You
10:20
chew too much.
10:22
That is the bomb.
10:25
I'm putting more in there. I'm going to
10:27
go sit down with my favorite show and my
10:29
favorite husband, Thomas.
10:31
>> Hey.
10:32
>> The one and only. Not my favorite, but
10:35
he's the one and only. So,
10:37
>> not your favorite.
10:38
>> I don't have a lot of them.
10:41
>> Just a few.
10:43
>> What do y'all think of my Fritos cowboy
10:46
cabbage casserole one skillet meal? A
10:50
lot going on, but it is so worth it. All
10:53
right, you guys. Don't forget to share
10:56

10:59
because they're going to love this.
