In a large pan, saute your ground meat in skillet over medium-high heat until about half cooked.
Add garlic, onions, olive oil & until meat is fully cooked. Drain excess grease.
Add water and broth, tomato sauce, diced tomatoes, italian seasoning, bay leaves, and seasoned salt, pepper and adobo seasoning. Mix well.
Lower heat and cover - allow to cook for about 20 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Stir in the cabbage, and let simmer for about 5 minutes (for more crunchy texture) to 10 minutes (for softer texture).
Remove from heat and remove the bay leaves.
Stir in cheddar cheese and serve.
