Read the question

T. I swear people don’t read the question.

D Absolutely. People skim. Then interpret the question from what they expect. So most are giving answers that follow something else. They think they are answering someone else’s question when they are actually answering their own. Rarely do those answers coincide.

Not my circus, not my monkeys.My new mantra: Not my circus, not my monkeys.
The Polish goes: “nie moj cyrk, nie moje małpy”

Excellent advice for those of us who want to help, when helping doesn’t serve.

And, after all
watching the circus from the sidelines is interesting
to say the least.

1 tablespoon olive oil
1 1/2 to 2 pounds lean ground beef
1 large onion, chopped
1 clove garlic, minced
1 small cabbage, chopped
2 cans (14.5 ounces each) diced tomatoes
1 can (8 ounces) tomato sauce
1 tablespoon cider vinegar or wine vinegar
pepper and salt to taste

Heat olive oil over medium heat in a large skillet. Add the ground beef and onion and cook, stirring, until ground beef is no longer pink and onion is tender. Add the garlic and continue cooking for 1 minute. Add the chopped cabbage, tomatoes, tomato sauce, vinegar, cinnamon, nutmeg, pepper, and salt. Bring to a boil. Cover and simmer for 20 to 30 minutes, or until cabbage is tender.

Note: Try the no salt added tomatoes and sauce to reduce sodium. It works fine.
