Cabbage is cheap. Like $.35 a pound cheap. Like I just got a really nice size cabbage for $1.25 cheap which will be used for many many meals. I pretty much constantly have cabbage in my house but I always sit there and stare and think “What am I going to make with this?” But cabbage can be treated in so many different ways! It’s amazing I ever get stuck. So here’s a list of some amazing cabbage recipes that I love. Whether you want it cooked, slawed, saladed, or just used as a crunch, there’s something for everything.
Roasted Cabbage
Here’s a super simple, super delicious meal side. Just top, rub and cook and get a deliciously healthy cabbage steak.
Stuffed Cabbage Rolls
Stuffed cabbage is an involved process but there’s a reason it’s a classic dish. Stuffed cabbage is delicious and if you have some time and the desire to do something intricate, you can’t go wrong here.
Unstuffed Cabbage Rolls
Alternatively, if you’re totally lazy like me, make some unstuffed cabbage rolls. You get all the deliciousness in way less time.
Cabbage Roll Soup
OR you can just toss it all into a soup you lazy, lazy human (like me!).
Amish Ground Beef and Cabbage Skillet
This is just a standby recipe for me now. It’s so easy and quick and it’s all in one pan so clean up is simple. Plus, it’s just absolutely delicious and requires very few ingredients. I tend to toss a bunch of spices in mine so don’t be afraid to pump up the flavor here.
Cabbage Mushroom Stir fry
This is another go-to of mine. Again, super simple but it takes cabbage somewhere different than the last four recipes. I love to add chicken to this to really round it out as a meal. It’s easy and delicious.
Cabbage Fried Rice
Similarly, you can use cabbage to make some delicious fried rice.
Kale and Cabbage Slaw Salad
Moving away from cooked cabbage and adding some color to the beast is a delicious, healthy kale and cabbage slaw salad. Salads and slaws of course require more chopping but they’re so incredibly good for you and so incredibly good to look at.
Crunchy Cabbage Salad with Spicy Peanut Dressing
Seriously, cabbage salads are so good
Kale, Apple and Cabbage Salad
I love apple and cabbage together – it’s why there’s also an apple cabbage slaw on this list. Their similar crunch but completely different taste just work so well together.
Sweet Asian Slaw with Toasted Almonds
If you can’t tell, asian flavors and cabbage go together amazingly.
Red Cabbage Slaw
This one is just a simple, delicious slaw. Sometimes simplicity is best.
Apple and Poppy Seed Coleslaw
See above for why I’m all about this. Apple and cabbage forever.
Cabbage, Quinoa Power Bowl
Healthy, delicious, creamy, yum
Sticky Spiced Red Cabbage
Simple, full of flavor and spice. So delicious
Tuna Cabbage Sandwich
Honestly, this is what I’m eating for dinner today. Tuna really benefits from that crunch.
