Roasting this vegetable is a game-changer, convincing even the most reluctant picky eaters that it’s worth a try! Cabbage is delicious when simply prepared. Steamed cabbage with butter and garlic is one of my favorite side dishes. But roasting elevates it to a whole new level. The Picky Eater, who objects to all vegetables, declared this roasted cabbage “amazing” and asked for seconds. I nearly fainted.

Recipe Card
Green cabbage. You can use red cabbage if you wish. Olive oil. This is my favorite oil to cook with. I use it to coat the cabbage before placing it in the oven. To season: Kosher salt, garlic powder, and red pepper flakes. I prefer garlic powder to fresh minced garlic because it coats the cabbage more evenly.
Cut the cabbage into wedges. Roast them at 400°F until tender and browned, 25-30 minutes. Serve immediately.

They are also good when served cold! Sometimes, I shred them and add them cold to a salad the next day. Other times, I simply snack on them cold, like antipasti.
