❓ FAQs
❓ Why is my cabbage soggy?
Overcrowding the tray—spread pieces out so they roast, not steam.
❓ Can I use red cabbage?
Yes! Slightly sweeter and looks more vibrant.
❓ Do I need to flip it?
Optional—but flipping halfway gives even crispiness.
❓ How do I store leftovers?
Refrigerate up to 3 days; reheat in oven/air fryer for crispiness.
❓ Is it keto-friendly?
