INGREDIENT NOTES:
GREEN CABBAGE:
- This is the basic component that gives the meal low calories. It gets tender from the inside and crispy outside after roasting. Cabbage is affordable and makes the recipe satisfying. Red cabbage is a great substitute as well.
OLIVE OIL:
- Oil-roast the cabbage properly to give golden, crispy edges. It keeps the cabbage from drying while cooking. Use avocado oil as an alternative.
LIGHT BUTTER:
- Butter makes the garlic topping flavorful and keeps the recipe lighter. It includes richness without increasing calories. You may use margarine as a substitute.
GARLIC:
- It gives a savory taste to the butter mixture. Include half a tsp of garlic powder as an alternative of garlic.
CENTER-CUT BACON:
- Bacon includes smoky taste and a crispy texture to the meal. Turkey bacon is a great alternative as well.
PARSLEY:
- It gives brightness and color to the dish. Parsley maintains the richness of butter and bacon. You may use chives, dill, or thyme as per your choice.
