This was pretty good! I did have a little trouble, since I don't have a steamer, but I steamed the cabbage in a double boiler and it seemed to work -- although I think I overcooked it just a tad. I used butter and minced ginger, and the taste was very good -- and subtle. I would use this recipe for the cabbage in lo mein and fried rice, and the flavor possibilities are endless! Thanks for posting this easy to follow, low carb recipe. I will be making this again and perhaps adding some cayenne pepper for a little "kick."

I first discovered this when I was low-carbing it. 40 pounds less later I completely forgot about this wonderful dish. I'm so pleased I found it again. I usually make it by shopping up the green cabbage in the food processor with the steel blade so it really does resemble rice. Then I just stir-fry it with the onions in the butter or olive oil, add my spices and other veggies and sit down to a wonderful meal.

We enjoyed this. I wasn't exactly sure how long to cook this actually and I think I may have over cooked it a tad. I used it as a rice sub. simply because I'm trying to eat more fruits and vegetables. I did add a little brummel & brown plus a generous shake of dried garlic and dried onion. I served chicken with sauce on the top and the cabbage soaked up the sauce beautifully. I'd like to try it with a little olive oil instead of butter. But a nice way to prepare cabbage.

Well, I guess you might say it's now AKillian24.5 - as we are expecting late this year. A very welcomed surprise, this will be our first child (of the non-fur variety) and we couldn't be more excited.
As I'm still working full time and prepping for life's next chapter, I've been cooking less frequently and offline a bit more than usual. I still love to pop into CC to visit the many people I consider friends.
Have a wonderful holiday season!
