Slimming World Recipes Red Cabbage

It’s that time of year when Sunday wouldn’t be complete without a roast dinner. There is nothing better than enjoying a chilled Sunday afternoon as dinner cooks away in the kitchen. Additionally, no roast dinner is complete without a generous helping of Sticky Red Cabbage Cooked In The Slow Cooker recipe for roast dinner. And even better this is Slimming World friendly red cabbage, delicious and low fat.

The challenge for me has been finding a Slimming World Red Cabbage recipe. Not because I religiously follow slimming world. More that I try to ensure I substitute recipes where I can to live a balanced lifestyle and still taste delicious.

As a result, this sweet slimming world red cabbage recipe is deliciously sweet and tasty but only has 1.5 syns per portion. This is a game changer for me, as the recipe I have been using for years has a LOT of butter in. Now don’t get me wrong it tastes AMAZING. But it’s nice to have a low fat healthy alternative. And its nice to have a few recipes for red cabbage ready to use depending on how much time I have.

Not only is it packed with vitamin c, it contains fibre to aid digestion and can also help keep inflammation at bay. Add the fact that it’s fat free and delicious cooked and served raw makes it a wonder vegetable perfect to serve with a steaming hot pie or Sunday roast.

Can you tell I love cabbage? Especially sweet red cabbage on roast dinner. But seriously, how many vegetables can you cook up to taste so sweet and delicious?

If you don’t want to cook in the slow cooker, or do not have the time place in an oven proof dish and cover with foil, cooking this way is quicker. I would expect it to take 2 hours in the oven.

Our reader Celia got in touch after playing pot luck with her veg-box deliveries:

“Luckily I’ve managed to secure delivery of a veg box, however, we’re now on week three of lockdown and I have two large cabbages staring at me. I really don’t like them but feel I must use them. Even the neighbours declined free cabbages! I’d love some recipe suggestions on how to make cabbage taste better.” Celia

Chinese Red Cabbage

Hands up who feels like Celia? Lots of us only eat cabbage when someone serves up a side of coleslaw at a barbecue – and that’s such a shame. This gorgeous green (or red or white!) is a versatile vegetable that’s brilliant in a whole range of recipes, from sizzling stir-fries and colourful risottos to hearty pies and healthy salads.

Plus, because there are so many ways to play around with it, a cabbage can stretch across several different meals – handy at a time when we’re all trying to make our food shops last as long as possible.

A delicious way to use that can of water chestnuts or bamboo shoots in your cupboard, too – discover a wok-ful of exciting flavours with tender cabbage, sliced omelette and spiced pork or chicken.

Shredded white cabbage and carrot are the stars of our healthy coleslaw recipe – perfect on the side of the epic Slimming World Big Daddy burger or a smoky bean burger.

We’ve borrowed an Indian mince curry to jazz up this comfort food classic – complete with a tasty cabbage and potato topping.

Our fantastically filling bubble and squeak recipe is ideal for using up your leftover cabbage – and makes a delicious breakfast, lunch or dinner.
