Cabbage can be a part of a bed of leafy greens in a salad and a great addition to certain meals for added crunch. Cabbage is rich in Vitamin C, Vitamin K, and fiber! Vitamin C can help to support our immune system and prevent damage to our bodies. Vitamin K plays a major role in blood clotting as it should to heal from injuries in addition to supporting our bone health. Fiber helps us to maintain a healthy digestive system and makes us feel full! A serving of cabbage can count towards the Dietary Guidelines for Americans recommended 5 servings of fruit and vegetable per day intake.
Nutritious Meal Idea: Cabbage can be chopped up in a salad or added to dishes such as burrito bowls, tacos, or burgers to add some nutritious crunch to your meal.
