Notes

Reduce Food Waste - Slice the remaining leftover cabbage, toss with oil, and roast on a baking sheet for 20 minutes at 400 degrees. When using fresh, soft herbs such as cilantro or parsley, do not waste the stems! These stems have the same flavors as the leaves with added crunch. Stretch your food dollars by using the entire plant.
Watch Your Sodium - Use no sodium spices or fresh herbs instead of salt. The recommended sodium intake is 2,300mg per day or less.
