When you think cabbage, coleslaw might be all that comes to mind — and maybe kimchi (the Korean fermented version), which is growing in popularity thanks to its gut-friendly probiotics.

Often overlooked, cabbage is a great way to add fiber, vitamin C and vitamin K to your diet. You can find the traditional green leafy heads at your local supermarket as well as deep purple and red varieties like Napa. Whether you’re looking for a creative breakfast smoothie or a new taco filling, you’ll love these recipes, which all incorporate cabbage.
