Roasted Napa Cabbage: Simple Pleasures

If you like Brussels Sprouts roasted caramel brown, then you should consider the other members of the cabbage family. They're cheap, quick to prep, and cook in about the same amount of time.

Recipe:
Set the oven to 400.
Cut a head of Napa into lengthwise wedges, trim out the toughest part of the core.
Toss or brush liberally with olive oil, salt, and pepper.  Lay cut-side down (so the outer leaves will act as a tent, keeping in some steam to soften the leaves as they roast) and cook until tender and caramelized. Mine took about 20 minutes.
