There are so many reasons to add more cabbage to you diet! Like other green vegetables, it is good source of many essential vitamins such as riboflavin, pantothenic acid, and thiamin.
It is also a very natural source of electrolytes and minerals like calcium, potassium, phosphorous, manganese, iron and magnesium, which can help control heart rate and blood pressure. Iron is required for red blood cell formation and is an important mineral for expecting mothers as it helps in avoiding anemia.
Here are two easy ways to add cabbage to your meals!
Roast it! Slice it and lay the slices flat on a baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with minced garlic and salt and pepper!
So easy and so good!
I also really like my cabbage sauteed with pretty much anything! This was an easy lunch just sauteed cabbage and chicken seasoned with salt and pepper and garlic!
And an simple clean coleslaw recipe always hits the spot!
You just need-
Cabbage
carrots (optional)
Apple Cider vinegar
olive oil
drizzle of real maple syrup
salt
pepper
and garlic powder
I just make this in small batches and I just add those ingredients to taste! And then toss it up! And enjoy!
So give cabbage a try today!
