Roasted Cabbage

Before I dive in and tell you about this recipe, I have to celebrate a little. I RAN A 5K YESTERDAY!!! My time was 36:20, which is by far my fastest for a three-ish miler. For a long time I didn't think I could run because of some lung issues from pneumonia when I was a kid, but now I can run for three full miles! Ok, now to get back to the real purpose of this blog, delicious food.

I don't think I can ever stop saying how much I love roasted veggies. It is my favorite way to eat just about any of them. Yesterday with our salmon we had roasted cabbage. It gets sweet and a little nutty when you roast it. Cabbage is not a huge hit in our house, but I love that it is cheap and filling. The Hubby eats it because it is in front of him, but the kids are not interested. More for me!

Start with about half a head of green cabbage. Red or savoy would work as well, green is what I had on hand. Slice it and remove the core. My slices were about half an inch thick.

Drizzle with olive oil and add salt, pepper, and whatever seasonings you enjoy. I used garlic powder and smoked paprika.

Roast it is a 425 degree oven for 20-30 minutes or until cooked through and a little browned.

Plate it up and enjoy the cabbagy goodness!
