Roasted Cabbage Wedges

When we went apple picking yesterday, I picked up a HUGE head of cabbage at the orchard for only .69/lb.   I decided I wanted to find a new recipe to try out with it, and had heard of roasting cabbage from somewhere recently, so I did a quick search and stumbled upon "Roasted Cabbage Wedges" on a site called group recipes.  This individual says they got the recipe out of an issue of Cook's Country, but did not cite the date. So, that's the best I can give you for the original source! This is my new favorite veggie recipe! Super easy, beautiful, and delicious!


Ingredients
-1 t. salt
-1/4 t. pepper
-1 t. sugar
-1 medium head green cabbage (in my case, I had a HUGE head, so I used more of everything else ;)
-3 T olive oil
-2 t. balsamic vinegar

Instructions
Adjust oven rack to upper middle position.  Place rimmed baking sheet on rack and heat oven to 450 degrees.  Combine salt, pepper, and sugar in small bowl.  Quarter cabbage through core and cut each quarter in to 1 inch wedges, leaving core intact.  You'll have about 16 wedges.  Brush cabbage wedges all over with oil and sprinkle with salt mixture.

Arrange cabbage wedges on hot baking sheet and roast until cabbage is tender and lightly browned around edges, about 25 minutes.  Drizzle with balsamic vinegar.
