Notes

The Keto diet has been shown to help some people lose weight, increase energy, prevent diabetes, cardiac disease, and dementia.  One of the most important things to remember, though, is that the typical Keto recipe is loaded with saturated fats, which typically come from dairy and other animal products.  Always talk with your doctor or other health professional before changing your diet.
Refrigerate leftovers in an airtight container for up to 7 days, but they probably won't last that long!
You can alter this recipe by using different vegetables or seasonings.  Try adding cumin, oregano, or other spices.  Also, you can alternate cabbage with kale, spinach, or other leafy greens.  Just wait to put them in until the end of the cooking process in order to avoid overcooking.
