“To Die For”, Cooked Cabbage with Tomatoes and Balsamic Vinegar!
Don’t hate me!
We should all eat more cabbage.
It’s inexpensive and one of the healthiest foods on the planet.
I like to make a big pot of this and have as my go to dish all week long!
I also add stuff to it like cheese and other veggies. I eat it with whole wheat bread or brown rice.
This dish is so simple yet so delicious you may just find yourself addicted…as I am!
For those of us avoiding simple carbs, these tender cooked cabbage “noodles” make a nice substitute for the real thing.
The shape and texture satisfies noodle lust!
Simply chop a head of cabbage; I always use 2 and 2-4 tomatoes and sautee in a large deep pan with olive oil.
When the cabbage is tender add the tomatoes.
When everything in soft add the balsamic; enough to add color.
You can also use canned tomato sauce or diced tomatoes. Make sure that they are unseasoned.
Unseasoned tomato paste would work as well.
Cover the pot and allow to cook for 2-4 hours on medium to low heat.
Add salt and pepper to taste.
I add flakes of crushed red pepper at the end and garnish with sheep feta and hot sauce!
This is so tasty! So healthy! and soooo addictive you won’t believe me until you try it!
