Adding Cabbage to Your Meals

 



 Cabbage has a simple taste, but it can still add some life to your meals! Packed with vitamins and available in white, green, and red color varieties, cabbage is a great veggie to have in a healthy diet. Cabbage is not very expensive and you get a nice bang for your buck - one head of cabbage can easily make two meals! Need some ideas on how to eat cabbage? Check out this list below:

Wrap n’ Roll
Cabbage can be used to make delicious wraps and rolls. Use raw cabbage leaves or boil them for about 2-4 minutes to soften them. Pile beans, brown rice, and a variety of veggies on the cabbage leaf, then roll it up! This makes for a tasty lunch or a hearty snack.

Switch Up Your Salads

Add some extra crunch to your usual salad by tossing in some shredded cabbage. You can also chop your cabbage into larger pieces to use as your salad base. Use purple cabbage in a bright and tasty Rainbow Salad or swap out lettuce for green cabbage in this fruity Sunshine Salad.

Colorful Coleslaw
Coleslaw is a side dish that can add freshness and flavor to any meal. Cut red and green cabbage up into thin slices. Add in some other finely chopped veggies and finish with a low-fat salad dressing. For a unique twist, the usual creamy dressing can be swapped for a vinaigrette. For color and crunch, try this Confetti Apple Slaw recipe (pictures included!).

Stir it Up
Cabbage makes a great base for stir-fry. Add a tablespoon or two of vegetable oil to a frying pan over medium to high heat, add in a head of shredded cabbage and other tasty veggies, then finish with your favorite herbs and spices. This makes for a great side dish by itself or placed on top of brown rice. Try this simple Cabbage Stir-Fry recipe or bring the heat with this Spicy Cabbage and Carrots dish.

Cabbage stays fresh in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks, but can last up to 4 weeks in the freezer. Be sure to wash your cabbage before using!
