Preheat the oven to 400F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Spread the cabbage pieces on the lined baking sheet.
1/2 large head green cabbage, chopped into bite-sized pieces, 1/2 large head purple cabbage, chopped into bite-sized pieces
Spray the cabbage lightly with cooking spray and sprinkle generously with salt and pepper. Toss with your hands or a large spoon and spray the cabbage again with non-stick cooking spray and generously sprinkle with salt and pepper.
non-stick cooking spray, salt, ground black pepper
Roast in the oven for 15 minutes then stir with a spoon so the cabbage cooks evenly. Roast for another 15 minutes or until the cabbage is softened and beginning to brown on the edges of the pan. Allow the cabbage to cool enough to handle before adding to the salad.
While the cabbage begins to cool, whisk (or use a match frother) the dressing ingredients together in a small bowl.
1 Tablespoon apple cider vinegar, 1 Tablespoon balsamic vinegar, 1 Tablespoon Dijon mustard, 1 Tablespoon honey
To a medium-sized bowl, add the roasted cabbage, apple and pecans. Pour in the dressing and stir to combine. Season with additional salt and pepper, if needed.
1 apple, diced, 1/3 cup chopped pecans
Serve warm or at room temperature. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days.
