Lemony Roasted Cabbage



So I was looking for something yummy to serve with my corned beef last Sunday, and I came across this recipe on Pinterest, from the blog attached above.  I was nervous because I had never really cooked cabbage before and not many people like it.  Needless to say...this was a  HUGE hit in our house! (So were my Rubens by the way!)  And it was SO EASY!!!

Take a head of cabbage and cut it into 8 wedges.  Lay them down on a greased roasting pan.
Mix together 2 TB of olive oil and and between 2-4 TB of freshly squeezed lemon juice.  I had a big head of cabbage and I used about 4 TBS of lemon juice and it was the perfect amount to cover my wedges, and it was the perfect level of lemoniness (?)....

Once you've mixed the oil and juice, use a pastry brush and baste the ouside of the cabbage with the mixture.  Then salt and pepper them as well.  Carefully turn them over and brush, salt, and pepper them again. 

Roast them at 450 for about 15 minutes on one side, then flip and do the same for the other.

SO YUMMY!! ( And for those who care it's only 1 WW Point per wedge!)
