Roasted cabbage wedges are one of my favorite vegetables to roast. They are crispy and super flavorful. Easy to make, and they’re ready in just 25 minutes – depending on the size of your cabbages and how thin you cut your quarters. This peanut sauce is just the bomb. It is easy to make and comes together in less than 5 minutes. No pans, just a bowl and a spoon. Talk about easy.
I personally do not like coleslaw. However, roasted cabbage is a game-changer – definitely worth a try! Even the pickiest eater will love this one.

- Yield: 2-4 1x
Ingredients
1 small purple cabbage (you can use green too)
salt and pepper
2 tbsp of avocado oil (any neutral oil will work)
Peanut Sauce
2 tbsp peanut butter
1 tbsp low sodium soy sauce
1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
1 tbsp honey
¼ cup of water (plus more, you want a loose sauce)
1 tbsp chili oil (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375 degrees.

- Salt and pepper your cabbage.
- Roast cabbage at 375 degrees for 20-25 minutes, flipping them a few times to get a nice char. Make sure you get the crispy edges and tender inside. Add more time roasting if needed.
- Make your sauce. Add all the peanut sauce ingredients to a medium size bowl.
