This was originally written as a Brussels sprouts recipe. But I didn't have any Brussels sprouts and I did have a lot of cabbage...

I ended up using about half of a large cabbage in place of the Brussels sprouts. I also doubled the bulgur and added a drizzle of pomegranate molasses just before serving.

Surprisingly the Kidlet liked this one! I mean, she wasn't super enthusiastic about it, but she ate it all. Whereas she said the maple-roasted apples and onions were weird and not good. Go figure!
