Heat oil in a large deep sided pot over medium high heat. Add the onion and sauté for 3 minutes, then add the garlic continue to sauté for an additional 30 seconds.

Add the ground beef and cook, crumbling the meat as it cooks, until the meat is no longer pink.(If there is a lot of grease from the meat, use a spoon and remove the excess grease. I used lean ground beef and had minimal grease to drain.)

Add the Italian seasoning, salt, pepper, red pepper flakes, diced tomatoes and tomato sauce stir until blended.

Add chopped cabbage and mix everything together, cover with the lid and simmer until the cabbage is tender, stirring occasionally, for about 15 minutes.

Serve immediately!
