Thirty Minute Meal

  4.0 – 87 reviews  

a simple Alfredo sauce that may be scaled to feed a large group. This sauce is stable enough to be used for a gathering and won’t separate like some Alfredo sauces do. If you cover the sauce, it will remain stable. It would be simplest to use tongs to dip the fettuccine into the sauce.

Instead of soup, I used marinara sauce, and ended up making a lasagne with this mix as the filling. It made a relatively healthy lasagne!
Luke Brown
Great fast dish. Added some garlic to it when browning onion and meat. Used Progresso Tomato Basil soup – much better. No water. Added a few egg noodles and viola! Dinner is served!
Andrew Baker
We liked it, but I did make some changes. I had ground pork, so I used that and I used tomato sauce instead of soup (all I had). Then I only added half a head of red cabbage. For flavor, I cooked the meat with garlic as well, then added a few flavors to it when cooking the liquid: garlic salt, chipotle ground pepper, cumin and some apple cider vinegar. I served it over rice. I would make this again as an easy, quick and filling meal.

I added mushrooms and garlic I have a magic bullet so I made my tomato soup so its more flavorful n doesn’t need seasonings
Cody Swanson
I nixed the water and added a can of diced tomatoes with chile peppers, and some frozen corn and ate it over rice…yummers

Instruction were to use a pot.. I would definitely use a pan for this recipe. This came out too watery for us… Flavors were okay.. could have used some other ingredient.

I usually do not care for cooked cabbage, but my man does, so I decided to treat him with this. The treat was mine, it was very good. Everyone enjoyed it. The changes I made were I used ground turkey instead of the beef and used quite a bit of seasoning salt. I think it would have been bland without.
Zachary Chandler
Easy and satisfying. A good way to use up cabbage.
Cynthia Hancock
good! took the reviewer suggestion and baked it after browning meat with onion without adding water
Deborah Cook PhD
As is, this recipe is a bit bland. To kick up the flavor, I skipped the water but added 1 cup of beef broth and a couple squirts of ketchup…then served over rice…yummy
Tyler Martinez
Delicious recipe!!! It’s a major hit with my family!!! I added shredded carrots to the recipe!
Catherine Cole
I agree, it was a little plain. I added cayenne pepper, because some reviews said they would’ve liked a little more kick. It ended up a little too spicy. I also added fresh tomatoes, garlic powder, and salt and pepper. If I ever made this again (but I probably won’t), I would add tomato Paste, instead of soup, to make it a little less liquid-y, and also add fresh garlic in when I sauteed the onions.
Mark Parker
This was kind of bland as written. I like the idea of it and will play around with some spices to add to it. I served it over rice.
Sarah Davis
Just made this for my man for dinner tonight he gave it a 10! 😀 I am new at cooking so that made my day
Chase Williams
We really liked this meal. Made as directed, but added a little bit of the water in the beginning to help break up the beef. I wish it had a little more tomato flavor, so I may use tomato sauce next time instead of the soup.
Mike Davis
This was the first time I have ever liked cooked cabbage! I did make some changes, I browned the ground beef with one minced garlic clove, omitted water totally and added 1 can of diced italian tomatoes drained. I also added a few dashes of chili powder and one teaspoon of tomato paste at the very end to brighten the flavor. Delicious!
Dale Edwards
For ease of making and great tasting. Will be making this often!
Daniel Banks
We really loved this. I took the suggestions and cooked the beef with garlic and onions. I added beef boullion cubes and some Lowry and still needed salt and pepper. I reduced the water slightly and steamed rice to go with it. We will be making this again soon.
Alexander Hodge
This dish was fine, I liked it. I did add garlic, red pepper flakes, and chili powder because of previous suggestions. I also added potatoes because I didn’t really have enough cabbage and needed more volume.
Robert Meyers
I had an ENORMOUS cabbage, so only used half, and used 1 can tomato soup, (low salt) 1 can tomato sauce and one can undrained diced tomatoes. Kept fat down w/ 90% lean sirloin ground beef with lots of garlic, extra onions and onion powder, Italian seasoning, 2 tb. of brown sugar, and a dash of Worcestshire sauce. Loved the sweet, tangy flavor and the thick, soupy consistency. Great for a chilly, fall day!!
Victoria Bennett
Yeah pretty bland. I had high hopes that it would taste real good, Tasted better after I put ketchup on it.
