    • 1 tablespoon dry minced onion

  • Cheese:
    • 1 1/2 cups shredded cheddar cheese

Instructions

  1. Cook the Ground Beef
    In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef until browned and fully cooked, breaking it into crumbles as it cooks. Drain excess fat, if needed.
  2. Add Seasonings
    Stir in the taco seasoning and dry minced onion, ensuring the beef is well-coated with the spices. Add the water and mix thoroughly.
  3. Cook the Cabbage
