Grilled Cabbage with Buttermilk-Dill Sauce & Walnut-Parmesan Crumble
If you’re looking for a new way to enjoy cabbage during the summer months than look no further than this delicious grilled cabbage with buttermilk-dill sauce and a salty, crunchy, herby crumble that ties the whole thing together. And if you don’t have a grill don’t fret, this would work well roasted in a hot oven too. I’ll add directions for that below.
I don’t know about you, but I absolutely love cabbage. It’s neutral in flavor, packs the best crunch and is jam packed with vitamins and minerals. It’s my favorite thing to add to burritos, tacos or whip up a good old fashioned coleslaw. It never disappoints. And if you’re feeling hot and bothered with this summer heat I think you’ll love this refreshing grilled cabbage situation. It’s worth every step. From the dressing to the crumble (don’t skip the crumble!)

To prepare this using an oven instead of a grill, cook the cabbages in a 425 degree oven for 40 minutes.
