Cabbage is definitely overlooked when it comes to vegetables and side dishes. For me at least. Which is a shame, because cabbage has so many health benefits, and nutrients to offer.
I know, it can be pretty bland. But when you add spices and flavor to it, it is actually delicious!
Olive oil and spices can do wonders to many vegetables. Cabbage is one of these vegetables. Although, cabbage isn’t bad raw. It has a nice hint of sweetness, and a great crunch!
Ok, so back to the awesome nutrition and health benefits that cabbage has to offer…
It contains a high amount of vitamins and nutrients that help with the digestive system and metabolism. It contains a lot of probiotics and fiber, along with alot of antioxidants that help protect against and fight off viruses and diseases. Sounds good to me! Bring on the cabbage!
I must say, the drizzled honey dijon mustard on top adds the perfect finishing flavor. It blends with the other flavors and compliments them so well.
I can’t forget to mention…the outer pieces of the cabbage steaks that are burnt…those are the best! They have a great crunch and flavor to them.
Enjoy!!
