SPICY CAJUN CABBAGE
I threw this together one night when I was craving a Cajun chicken pasta dish I used to make. I've missed it since going low-carb. This dish was a perfect substitute! Great texture and a very, very mild vegetable flavor. Mostly just Cajun yumminess! Adjust the spices to your taste.

We love this dish at our house, and whenever I take it to a potluck, it disappears just as quickly as it does at home. This pleasing recipe was given to me by my sister-in-law from Louisiana. I've made some changes in the ingredients, but the snappy Cajun flavor is still there. It's easy to increase for any number of guests.

While doing this separate the ground round into clumps and layer throughout. You may have to make two batches. Make sure each ingredient is in the rice cooker before cooking. Turn on the rice cooker. Cook until rice cooker stops cooking - when you hear the 'click.' Unplug rice cooker and stir the pot. For serving you can put the cabbage casserole in a casserole dish.

Steps:
- Saute the onion, bell pepper and celery in the bacon drippings or butter until softened; add the garlic and cook another minute. Add the garlic, ground beef and andouille sausage; cook until ground beef is browned. Drain off any excess fat that has accumulated. Add the water, bouillon and Rotel, bring to a boil, reduce heat to simmer, cover partially and let simmer at a low bubble for 1 hour. Stir in the cabbage, carrot, potato, vinegar and seasonings. Cover and continue to simmer another 25 to 30 minutes, or until cabbage and vegetables reach the desired level of tenderness. Taste and adjust seasonings as needed before serving. May serve as is, or over cooked rice. Cook's Notes: When using ground pork, I prefer chicken base and beef base with ground beef. Andouille sausage is a highly spiced smoked sausage that is blended with Cajun spices, adding a spicy kick and great flavor to these dishes. If you substitute kielbasa or other smoked sausages in recipes where it calls for Andouille, it will affect the outcome of your dish and you'll need to make adjustments in the seasonings you use. May also use spicy breakfast or Italian sausage (casings removed). For less heat, substitute one (14.5 ounce) can of diced tomatoes for the Rotel and use a milder sausage. May substitute broth or stock for the water and base. Add additional liquid for more of a soup-like consistency.
