One of my personal family goals for 2011 is to offer a wider variety of vegetables to my family. We are a veggie loving family but usually eat the same ones: green beans, broccoli, peas, squash and salads. I hope to broaden our horizons and this recipe is sooo good. I know what you are thinking: Cabbage? Cabbage is an excellent source of manganese, calcium, potassium, iron, phosphorous, magnesium, fiber, folate and omega-3 fatty acids. Further, sodium, zinc and copper are found in good amounts in cabbage. Cabbage is also an excellent source of vitamin C thiamin, riboflavin, niacin, vitamin B6, vitamin k, folate, vitamin A and protein.
One huge plus is that cabbage only has about 200 calories per head! I encourage you to try this and promise making it this way is absolutely delicious. My mother in law made this on one of our visits and I found myself just going back for more! If you don't have Cavendar's seasoning you could use salt, pepper, garlic powder and a little celery salt...or any seasoning that you love!
