If you were to make a multi-part Venn diagram combining my favorite salad things, you could nestle this right in the center. It’s one part wedge salad, the fork and steak knife kind, something I am so into I talked my podcast co-host Kenji (okay, it wasn’t hard) into dedicating a whole episode to it. And it contains cabbage, and not just cabbage but Napa cabbage, which I think deserves more credit as a salad green. [This can be convenient to know as it often comes in heads large enough to feed a small family for a week.] Napa cabbage is a little leafy, a little crunchy, and yet kind of juicy too and I’ve used it, sliced thin, in everything from this Italian-style salad to a classic Caesar.

This seaweed salad is colorful, delicious, and boldly flavored with sesame dressing. If you enjoy seaweed salads at Japanese restaurants, try this fun twist on the concept. Many prepared seaweed salads are colored with food dyes, but this one obtains its lively color from veggies.
If you’re relatively new to seaweed, like I am, this salad offers a great introduction. It calls for arame, which has a more mild and sweet flavor compared to other seaweed varieties. The crisp textures of cabbage and bell pepper, combined with soy sauce and ginger, contrast beautifully with the seaweed.
This salad is the perfect way to incorporate nutritious seaweed into your diet.Seaweed’s nutritional benefits vary depending on the specific variety, but they are often a good source of fiber, iodine, potassium and magnesium, among others. I try to consume a wide variety of whole foods, so seaweed is a welcome addition.

To me, it’s officially summertime the first time I smell fresh-cut grass AND someone grilling. As a devoted veggie lover, I don’t crave the typical BBQ meats, but I do crave this charred, smokey, and down-right delicious GRILLED CABBAGE! With a chili garlic glaze and crispy Parmesan crust, my recipe transforms this budget-friendly veggie into the star of any summer cookout.
Cabbage is one of my favorite vegetables of all time. Did you know it’s especially high in vitamins C and K? But I don’t need any further convincing – when grilled, the cabbage’s subtly sweet flavor and swoon-worthy texture make me fall even more in love with it. This grilled cabbage recipe MIGHT just be my favorite way to eat it (not including raw with hummus, of course). The charred edges and crisped-up Parmesan are to die for!
And don’t get me started on the softened, thinner leaves combined with the thicker, still crispy outer layers – it’s seriously addictive.
Grilled Cabbage Ingredients
Here’s what you’ll need to make grilled cabbage:
Cabbage: Any whole head of cabbage will work! I had purple and green cabbage on hand, so I grilled both to show you how the different options turned out.
Garlic: Freshly minced garlic adds a ton of flavor to the grilled cabbage wedges.
Olive Oil: Helps the cabbage char and get those irresistible grill marks.
Salt and Pepper: Enhances the natural flavors of the cabbage.
Chili Flakes: Just a pinch adds a subtle heat to the glaze.
Parmesan Cheese: Adds to the crispy, crunchy texture of the cabbage by giving it a super addictive crust on all sides. If you’re dairy-free, you can leave it off.
What Else Can I Add?
Grilled cabbage is the perfect vessel for any seasoning your heart desires! Smoked paprika, ranch seasoning, or a sprinkle of your favorite BBQ rub are all great options if you want to mix the flavors up.
Top Tip
Before slicing, turn your cabbage upside down so the bottom of the stem is visible. Each grilled cabbage wedge should have a piece of that stem attached – it helps keep everything together while grilling. Slice directly through the stem when portioning out the cabbage!
Serving Suggestions
I love topping grilled cabbage with our balsamic glaze, extra Parmesan cheese, and fresh parsley. Then, I usually serve it with anything else I’ve cooked on the grill, like grilled salmon or grilled chicken, for the ultimate summer meal!
Peel away the outermost layers of cabbage and discard them.
Cut your cabbage into 2 inch wedges and shave off the very bottom of the stem so it’s nice and clean. I like to cut the cabbage in half first, so I have a steadier base to cut from. You will want to leave the stem intact when you cut your cabbage into wedges so it stays in one piece on the grill.
Whisk together the olive oil, minced garlic, sea salt, freshly cracked black pepper, chili flakes, and grated Parmesan in a small bowl.
Brush the Parmesan cheese mixture over all sides of each cabbage wedge.
Grill the cabbage on each side for 5-6 minutes each on a 400 degree grill. Once you put the cabbage on the grill, resist the urge to move it around. Let it sear in one spot until it’s time to flip. In my opinion, the more char, the better!
Dress each grilled cabbage wedge with a drizzle of our balsamic glaze and any additional Parmesan cheese you may have, and sprinkle 1 Tbsp freshly minced parsley on top (all optional). Serve and enjoy!
Peel away the outermost layers of the cabbage to remove any wilted, tough, or damaged leaves, and discard them.
Cut your cabbage into 2-inch wedges and shave off the bottom of each wedge to create a clean, flat edge. I like to cut my cabbage in half first; it makes slicing through the stem a bit easier. Turn the cabbage over, slice through the stem, and cut each half into equal-sized wedges. Keep the stem intact for easier grilling!
In a small bowl, combine 3 Tbsp olive oil, 1 minced garlic clove, 1 tsp sea salt, 1/2 tsp black pepper, 1 tsp chili flakes, and 2 Tbsp grated Parmesan.
Brush the Parmesan cheese mixture over all sides of each cabbage wedge.
Heat your grill to 400°F. Carefully place each cabbage wedge onto the grill and cook for 5-6 minutes. Once you put the cabbage on the grill, resist the urge to move it around. Let it sear in one spot until it’s time to flip. In my opinion, the more char, the better!
After 5-6 minutes, flip the cabbage wedges and continue cooking for an additional 5-6 minutes.
(Optional) Drizzle some balsamic glaze over the charred cabbage, top with additional Parmesan cheese (if you have some leftover), and sprinkle with 1 Tbsp freshly minced parsley.
Serve this easy grilled cabbage during your next holiday BBQ, potluck, or grill night!
