- 6 oz. "light" low-carb beer

- 2 bay leaves
Directions:
For the Cabbage:
- Chop the cabbage into wedges. Season with avocado oil and Everything but the Bagel seasoning.
- Place in the oven for 30 mins at 350F or until golden brown and crispy.
For the Corned Beef:
- Place the seasoning and water into a stockpot. Cook on a medium to high heat until it has all dissolved.
- Add the brisket, and allow to simmer gently for up to 3 hours, or until cooked all the way through. The meat should become tender the touch.
- Finish in an oven on broil or a cast iron skillet, slice, and serve with cabbage and any sides of your choice.
For a more traditional take on potatoes, you can make cauliflower mash or use jicama or radishes to create a keto mash.
