Cabbage Steaks
- 2 small cabbage heads
- 3 tbsp. olive oil
- ½ tsp. salt or to taste
- 2 tsp. paprika
- 1 tbsp. garlic powder

Instructions
- Prepare the Cabbage: Cut the stems off the cabbage heads and then cut each head in half, then in half again to create four thick cabbage slices approximately ¾ to 1 inch thick per head.
- Arrange on Baking Sheet: Place the cabbage steaks on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, making sure to leave some space between the slices for even cooking.

- Season the Other Side: Flip the cabbage steaks over and repeat brushing with olive oil and seasoning. Add a pinch of red pepper flakes to each if desired for some heat.
- Bake the Steaks: Bake the cabbage steaks in a preheated oven at 400°F for about 25 minutes until the leaves are browned, edges are crispy, and centers are tender.
- Serve: Serve the roasted cabbage steaks hot straight from the oven as a snack, side, or part of your favorite meal.
