Baked Cabbage is one of the dishes I make on repeat. There are not enough words to describe this fantastic, impressive and delicious dish. Baked Cabbage is just so so good and ridiculously easy to prepare.

Literally 5 minutes or less to assemble (after all the veggies are washed and cut) and you are done. All you need to do is wait 5-6 hours for it to slow cook.

It is our latest favorite dish in the house. It is rich in flavor, low in calories and perfect for any occasion.
