Easy Sautéed Cabbage
Makes About 4 Servings

1 Tbsp Extra virgin olive oil*
½ cup chopped yellow onion
4 cups chopped green cabbage
1/3 cup vegetable broth or water
Salt and pepper, to taste

Briefly warm the extra virgin olive oil in a skillet that has a lid. Add the onions and sauté briefly until they start to soften, about 1 or 2 minutes. Add the chopped cabbage and stir to combine. Add the vegetable broth or water and sprinkle with salt and pepper to taste. Cover the skillet with a lid, and allow the vegetables to steam, stirring occasionally, until they are crisp tender, about 3 to 5 minutes. Remove from heat and serve.

*If preferred, a tablespoon or two of the vegetable stock can be used to sauté the onions in place of the oil.
