Description
Juicy oven baked cabbage burgers using roasted cabbage slices instead of buns, seasoned beef, and melted cheddar cheese. This is a simple low carb dinner.
Ingredients
- 1 head green cabbage
- 1 pound lean ground beef
- 1 medium onion finely chopped
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 half teaspoon salt
- 1 half teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Slice the cabbage into 1 inch thick rounds. Place them on the baking sheet, brush both sides lightly with olive oil, and season with salt and black pepper.
- Roast the cabbage slices for 10 minutes until they begin to soften and lightly brown.
- In a mixing bowl, combine ground beef, chopped onion, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix until evenly combined.
- Remove cabbage from the oven. Divide the beef mixture evenly and shape into patties directly on top of each cabbage slice. Press gently to secure.
- In a small bowl, stir together mayonnaise and Dijon mustard. Spread a thin layer over each beef patty.
- Sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese evenly on top of each patty.
- Return to the oven and bake for 15 to 20 minutes until the beef reaches an internal temperature of 160°F and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
- Let rest for 5 minutes before serving.
Notes
- Choose a firm cabbage and slice evenly so all pieces cook at the same rate for best texture.
- Pair with a crisp green salad or roasted vegetables for a balanced meal.
