Roasted Cabbage and Bratwurst

by

This week’s featured recipe, Roast Cabbage & Bratwurst, brings German-inspired flavors together in an easy sheet pan meal filled with savory herbs, roasted vegetables, and hearty chicken bratwurst.

Why we love this recipe:

  • One-pan meal
  • Easy cleanup
  • Great for meal prep
  • No added salt recipe
  • Packed with flavor and texture

Instead of relying on added salt, this recipe builds flavor with:

  • Apple cider vinegar
  • Ground mustard powder
  • Garlic & onions
  • Smoked paprika & herbs

Roasting vegetables helps bring out their natural sweetness and depth of flavor, while ingredients like apple cider vinegar, herbs, spices, garlic, and mustard powder create bold flavor naturally, making it easier to keep sodium in check while still enjoying satisfying meals. Small cooking techniques and ingredient swaps can make a big difference in building flavor without relying on added salt.

Caramelized Onions:
  1. Slice onions into thin, even strips.
  2. In a sauté pan, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the onions and cook until they start to become translucent and soft.

  5. Drain the mushrooms and save the hot liquid.
Garlic White Sauce:
  1. To a blender, add the cottage cheese, garlic cloves, salt, and black pepper. Then, add 2-3 T of hot mushroom liquid from the previous step. Blend until completely smooth. Add more hot liquid, if needed, to make it smoother.
Assemble Flatbread:
  1. Lay the flatbread on a sheet pan. Spread the Garlic White Sauce all over the top.
  2. Add Mushroom Mixture on top of the sauce.
  3. Next, add a thin layer of Caramelized Onions over the mushrooms.
  4. Finally, top with fresh mozzarella cheese.
  5. Bake or air fry at 400-degrees F for 10-15 minutes.
  6. Slice into 8 slices, top with chopped parsley and drizzle with Balsamic glaze. Enjoy!
  7. Notes: You can broil for 1 minute at the end of the baking time to make the cheese extra bubbly. Use any variety of mushrooms that you like.
