Add a little kick and vibrant colors to any meal when you pair it with this lively side dish. Steamed cabbage is a classic recipe in Jamaican cuisine and it offers a world of health benefits. Cabbage is a member of the cruciferous vegetable family and it is an incredibly nutritious vegetable, despite the fact that people overlook it.

Cabbage contains a lot of vitamin C & K, fiber, folate, calcium, potassium, and vitamin B6. Additionally, it also contains small amounts of micronutrients that have antioxidant properties. Load up on cabbage and a healthy amount of capsaicin from the scotch bonnet pepper. This is an extremely hot pepper, so you’ve been warned!
