Grilled Cabbage

I can’t remember who mentioned this to me but I had to try it. It seemed like such a neat idea. I've never had grilled cabbage before.

Grilled CabbageI had some left over cabbage from the Turkey Orzo Cabbage Rolls that I had NO idea what to do with.

  • 1 head of cabbage
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tbsp red wine vinegar
  • 1 tbsp apple cider vinegar
  • 1 tbsp balsamic vinegar
  • ½ tsp garlic powder
  • ½ tsp onion powder
  • 1 tsp dried parsley
  • Salt & Pepper

Remove the outer leaves of the cabbage. Cut in half on the core. Cut the halves in half then cut the quarters in half. You should end up with 8 wedges each being held together with a bit of the core.

In a large bowl add the remaining ingredients and wish. Add the cabbage quarters and coat with the mixture.

Grill for about 30 minutes flipping once. I did them right on the stovetop in a non-stick griddle about 10 minutes a side. It was still nice and crunchy.

Each wedge is only about 50 calories, 2 g of fat and 3 g of fiber. It was super filling and bulk up your BBQ dinners. I plan to have some leftovers with supper tonight.

Please share your grilled cabbage ideas, I've never had it before so I'm not sure if my marinade is "normal". Just looking for more ideas.

Update:Even better reheated on the grill!

Ooooh, that sounds tasty! I might have to try this on an outdoor grill.

I've never had grilled cabbage, but I've had grilled hearts of romaine. Same idea, maybe you've done that too. I'd forgotten about it though. The one I had was marinated in plain old Italian dressing, so not low-cal or fancy, but I liked the flavor. Maybe olive oil... well, not sure that can stand up to a grill. Hmm. Need to think about this one some more. :) Much potential for grilling things here!

Hi, Roni,

Back to the zucchini recipe for a minute if you don't mind. You can squeeze the moisture out of zucchini (eggplant, etc.) by placing it in a potato ricer. Just do some at a time and it takes the moisture right out ... or it has for me at least.

The recipes all sound fabulous. I can't wait to try some.

ooops, I just read back to get the zucchini recipe and see you already used the potato ricer. One step ahead of me ... that is a good thing, lol.

I would wrap them in foil with some butter spray and a smidge of salt. Italian dressong woudn't be bad either...
