Roasted Cabbage

February 2, 2012 by Julie 54 Comments

I absolutely love corned beef and cabbage but only seem to make the dish once a year on St. Patrick’s Day. Though most people praise the corned beef part of this traditional St. Patrick’s Day meal, I actually love cabbage just as much. 

While corned beef was extra pricey at the grocery store this week, cabbage was nice and cheap, as always. Ten points for cheap veggies!

I bought a head of cabbage, promising myself to use it in a new way. I remembered seeing Kalyn roast cabbage on her blog nearly a year ago and searched her blog again this evening to find the recipe.

Fortunately her recipe was incredibly easy! I followed her technique, but rather than use two tablespoons of olive oil and lemon juice on top of the cabbage, I opted for two tablespoons of Garlic Gold Meyer Lemon Vinaigrette which ended up being a great decision.

After trimming the cabbage and cutting it up into eight pieces, I brushed the vegetable with the vinaigrette using a pastry brush.

I roasted the cabbage in the oven at 450 degrees for about 25 minutes.

It was fantastic!

Ryan and I ate the cabbage alongside broiled salmon, shrimp sautéed in a bit of butter and Old Spice and a small sweet potato.

I seriously loved this dinner so much. It combined by love for seafood with my love for delicious vegetables, making me one happy camper. Mmm!

Off to crack open the third book in The Maze Runner trilogy!

    Wow, that’s quite the meal. I hear a lot of garlic gold but haven’t tried it. Where can you buy it? I’ve never seen it in stores before.

    I started the Maze Runner series after you posted about it and I just finished the second one today! Unfortunately a bunch of books I had on hold just came in to the library, so I might have to break up the series to read Tina Fey’s Bossypants first. Who heard of 1 week rentals from the library? But I can’t wait to finish the series!

    I actually love cabbage too! I should really make it more often. I had saurkraut tonight though – another one of my favorites.

    Thank you so much for turning me onto the Maze Runner series. I’m halfway through the first book and absolutely love it.

    I just finished the Maze Runner trilogy, I liked it, but not as much as I liked, or rather LOVED The Hunger Games!

    I’ve never though about roasting cabbage, sounds great! I’m hoping you seasoned the shrimp with Old Bay and not Old Spice! Might burn a little bit otherwise!

    Gahhh Julie – I made cabbage in a recipe on Monday (recipe went up this afternoon on my blog), and then i basically died. It killed my stomach – i guess bc I rarely ever eat cabbage, so I wasn’t used to it? Anyways, I hope your tummy holds up – I’m traumatized by my experience haha.

    My favorite way to eat cabbage in a “new” way is to boil a halved head of cabbage and use the soft, peeled away layers almost like a wrap. My family usually uses some sort of grain (typically rice) and meat. It adds a nice delicate flavor, and who doesn’t love wraps?

    That cabbage looks good! I would have never thought to roast it. I just finished the Hunger games, and will have to check out The Maze Runners.

    BTW, I’m really enjoying your blog. Your food is is so realistic compared to some other blogs I’ve seen, and I’m in love with Sadie! We just put a deposit on a black lab puppy and her name is Sadie too : )

    Cabbage is one of the few veggies that I don’t like – but your salmon looks yummy.

    B/c of your recommendations, my husband and I have sped through both Divergent and The Maze Runner trilogy after reading The Hunger Games. (Well, we’re on The Death Cure). We thought The Maze Runner trilogy really gives Hunger Games a run for its money!! The second book in the Divergent series comes out in May… until then, we’re both anxious about what book could possibly hold our attention like these did until then!!

    I LOVE that roasted cabbage recipe. It’s now a staple in my weekly menu. Even the kids love “the lettuce.”

    Hope you enjoy the 3rd book – it’s not my favorite, but at least there’s an ending!
