Ingredients

2 Tablespoons Melted Ghee (for coating baking dish) (we used Organic Valley Ghee)

1 Head Green Cabbage

1 Red or Yellow Onion, peeled and thickly sliced

2 Large Carrots, peeled and cut in 1/4-inch coins

1/4 Cup Bone Broth or Water (we used EPIC Bone Broth)

1/4 Cup Melted Ghee (we used Organic Valley Ghee)

Salt and Pepper

Aged Balsamic Vinegar, to taste (we used O Aged Balsamic Vinegar)


Method

1. Preheat oven to 325 degrees F. Make sure rack is set in the middle.

2. Coat baking dish with melted ghee.

3. Cut the tough stem end of the cabbage and split into 6-8 wedges. You want to make sure to keep the core attached so the wedges stay intact after cooking (the core will become super tender during cooking as well).

4. Lay the cabbage wedges in a single layer on the greased baking dish. Toss onions and carrots onto wedges and drizzle with bone broth and the melted ghee.

5. Season well with salt and pepper. Cover tightly with foil and place in oven.

6. Leave cabbage to cook (undisturbed) for 1 hour. After that hour, crack open the foil cover and flip over each wedge carefully. Reseal dish tightly and braise for another hour or until fork-tender.

7. Remove cabbage to cool and store in fridge until you’re ready to enjoy (up to 4 days). When you’re ready to serve, bake cabbage in oven until browned (about 15 minutes) at 425 degrees F.

8. Drizzle with aged balsamic vinegar, serve immediately, and enjoy!
