Coconut Yogurt

Many people tout traditional yogurt as a good source of protein and probiotics. However, those on the AutoImmune Spectrum™ know to avoid gluten and dairy. Coconut yogurt is an excellent dairy free substitute that offers a nutritional edge. Coconut yogurt contains healthy fats that support healthy energy levels. 

Coconut yogurt also has vitamins A, E, and B12. Your body uses B vitamins for metabolism and detoxification. Vitamins E and A act as antioxidants to fight oxidative stress and inflammation. It also contains minerals such as zinc and potassium. Zinc plays a critical role in skin and immune health.

On top of all that, coconut yogurt carries a thick, creamy consistency, making it suitable for all kinds of recipes. Look for brands that are free of additives and gums. In addition, check the label to make sure there are no fillers or added sugars.

How To Make Roasted Cabbage with Coconut Yogurt

Start by preheating your oven to 425 Farenheit. As the oven warm up, wash and slice the cabbage in half. Then, cut into thick wedges. Make sure to keep the core intact. This helps hold the leaves together. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and lay the wedges flat. 

Now it’s time to create our seasonings! In a medium sized bowl, combine your olive oil, salt, black pepper, and cumin. Next, add your thyme, and oregano. Using a brush to distribute the oil mixture onto the cabbage wedges. No need to be shy with this! Make sure to coat all sides to ensure an even roast.

Place the cabbage in the oven and roast for 30-35 minutes. You’ll want to flip the wedges halfway through to make sure they roast evenly.

While we’re waiting for the cabbage to roast, let’s make the coconut yogurt sauce. All you need to do is combine the coconut yogurt, Immune IG, and cumin in a bowl. Add the lemon juice, garlic, parsley and sea salt. Whisk all the ingredients together until you get a smooth, creamy consistency. 

Once the cabbage is ready, remove from the oven to cool slightly. Grab your serving plates and spoon a generous amount of coconut yogurt sauce onto it. Arrange the roasted cabbage wedges on top. Drizzle more coconut yogurt on top and garnish with freshly chopped parsley.
