Simple Roasted Cabbage – Easy Way to Use Up Leftover Cabbage

For some reason, I have never thought about roasting cabbage even though I have roasted a good number of other vegetables over the years.  Thankfully, I recently tried roasting cabbage in an attempt to use up a 1/2 head of leftover cabbage from a recent Indian cabbage preparation.  I had searched for cabbage recipes online, and ended up finding references to a Cook's Illustrated roasted cabbage wedges recipe though I couldn't find the actual recipe on the CI website.  The "recipe" though is pretty simple and basically the standard recipe for roasting any vegetable – cut into uniform pieces, cover with olive oil, and season with salt and pepper.  I put the cabbage in an oven at 450 degrees, and roasted for approximately 20 minutes or until the cabbage started to brown.  The roasted cabbage that resulted makes a perfect, low-calorie side to any fall/winter main course.
