    • 2 medium heads green cabbage, cut into wedges

    • ¼ cup olive oil

    • 1 tsp salt

    • ½ tsp black pepper

    • 1 tsp garlic powder


🧀 For the “Marry Me” Creamy Cheese Sauce (THIS WAS MISSING)

    • 2 tbsp butter

    • 3 cloves garlic, minced

    • 1 cup heavy cream

    • ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese

    • ½ cup shredded mozzarella (for that melty look in the photo)

Instructions

1️⃣ Roast the Cabbage

  • Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C)
  • Arrange cabbage wedges on a lined baking sheet
  • Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt, pepper, garlic powder
  • Roast 25 minutes, flip, then roast another 20–25 minutes

  • Add garlic and sauté 30 seconds until fragrant
  • Pour in heavy cream and simmer 3–4 minutes
  • Stir in Parmesan until smooth
  • Add mozzarella and stir until fully melted and stretchy
  • Season with salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes

✔️ Sauce should be thick, creamy, and glossy


3️⃣ Combine & Melt

  • Transfer roasted cabbage to a serving dish
  • Pour the hot cheese sauce generously over the cabbage
  • Optional: place under broiler 2–3 minutes for extra bubbling and browning
