You possibly will not accept that you can lose weight while on a diet plan which includes gefulles kraut but it is obtainable. It is fundamental to not eat gefulles kraut or other high calorie vegetables, sauerkraut every day but in moderation.

This is what I do, I allow myself high calorie food once per week. I eat a healthy diet for 6 days of the week, say 1200 to 1600 calories each day, and then on the last day, I eat what I please – without going overboard of course.

I have been eating like this for the last few weeks and it has enabled me to lose 5 kilos. I have not accelerated my exercise habits or taken any pills or diet food. I have just been conscious of what I eat 6 days per week and then eat whatever I like one day per week.

I also feel it helps to have some support when on a weight loss program and for that I signed up with the Biggest Loser club. They have many tools to help you monitor your progress and achieve your goals.

Gefulltes Kraut (German Stuffed Cabbage)

2 pounds lean ground beef
2 eggs
3/4 cup seasoned dry bread crumbs
1/4 cup chopped onion
1/2 cup fresh chopped parsley
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1 medium head cabbage
1 tablespoon beef base
1/2 cup red wine (cabernet sauvignon or merlot)
3 tablespoons olive oil
2 1/2 cups water, divided
1/4 cup all-purpose flour

In a large bowl, combine beef, eggs, bread crumbs, onion, parsley, salt, pepper, beef base and wine. Mix well and shape the mixture into 2 large, round patties, about 8 inches in diameter.

Carefully pull off 9 or 10 cabbage leaves from head.

Add 1 1/2 cups water to a large pot and place cabbage leaves in pot. Cover and steam leaves for 10 minutes. Drain.

In a skillet, heat the olive oil. Place 3 cabbage leaves in skillet and top with 1 patty. Add 3 more cabbage leaves and top with the other patty. Add remaining cabbage leaves. Brown well for 7-10 minutes on one side. (Don’t worry if cabbage burns a little, that is part of the taste.) Carefully flip the food over with a large plastic spatula. Brown on the other side for 7-10 minutes. Remove from heat and keep warm.

In the same skillet, dissolve the beef bouillon; add the wine and 2 cups of water. Cover and cook for 45 minutes over low heat.

In a small dish, mix the flour with a 1/2 cup of water and add to the juices in the skillet. Heat and cook until thickened. Place Gefulltes Kraut on a platter, then pour some gravy over the top. Slice and serve with remainder of gravy on the side.

Serves 6 to 8.
