Low carb baked cabbage
Cabbage is a seriously underrated vegetable. It’s jam-packed with nutrients – including vitamins C and K, as well as fiber, the amino acid glutamine and antioxidants that can help lower your risk of cancer. Plus, it can be cooked in many ways for a delicious side dish. This recipe calls for baking it under a blanket of sour cream and cheese.
Garlic roasted cabbage

This is as simple as it gets. For seasoning, use salt, pepper, and butter. You can also add some cider vinegar to enhance the flavor. Get the recipe here.

Vegetarian cabbage stir-fry
When you think of cabbage, what comes to mind? Most people probably think about coleslaw, but I always think about my grandmother’s noodles and cabbage. It was a simple dish – literally just noodles and cabbage – that put dinner on the table during lean times. Over the years, I modified her basic version to become this recipe. It's filled with heart-healthy vegetables, and I swapped in zoodles (spiralized zucchini) for the pasta noodles.​
