The one sure way I can drop a few pounds is by reducing carbs from my diet.

This girl loves potatoes, pasta and bread, so… NO carbs is not something I can sustain for too long, but this recipe is so full of flavor I don’t feel like I’m missing out.

HOW TO MAKE ROASTED CABBAGE WITH BACON

Preheat oven to 400 degrees.

Cut cabbage into 1/2″ steaks and place on a greased cookie sheet.

Using a basting brush, add olive oil to the top of each cabbage steak.

Sprinkle each with seasoned salt and pepper. Only 1/4 tsp of seasoned salt and pepper to all six steaks. It does not take much seasoned salt.

Add 1 tbsp crumbled bacon onto the top of each steak. You could add raw bacon to the cabbage, but the roasting will take a bit longer and I like my cabbage to have a little bite. Not too mushy.

Bake for 25 minutes.

Garnish with green onions and serve immediately.
