Cabbage

This is what I call being frugal ; buying a 2kg cabbage for € 1.9 !

Whoa, it's a beauty!

What are you going to cook with it?

It actually seems to weigh 3 kg so I've already made some braised cabbage. I'll most probably make some cabbage salad, soup and perhaps roast it.

I imagine that it could easily feed 10 people.

That looks like it would make some lovely stuffed cabbage rolls.

I'm not too keen on stuffed cabbage rolls, however I know that they are quite popular.

Cole slaw yum. And pass the roasted cabbage, I eat it like popcorn.

Yes, coleslaw or colcannon or just steamed with a veg roast dinner.

I just saw you can put kale in colcannon so maybe I will try that.

I love colcannon and yes kale would be perfect.

So far I have had it braised and for today's lunch a cabbage salad with a pear vinaigrette made with a drizzle of pistachio oil and served with chopped pistachios.

I saw a video saying that purple cabbage is the best superfood bargain with the most antioxidants per dollar spent! Opt for purple cabbage next time for added antioxidants.

This thread encouraged me to run out, grab the biggest cabbage I could find, and make my first ever cabbage rolls.

I have purple cabbage in the house quite often though; I like to shred the a gigantic head of it and then happily add it into tofu scramble, salads, and pasta/rice dishes until it's all gone.

Now I want cabbage soup...
