Cabbage is a nutritious vegetable that scores a lot of points when it comes to the affordability factor. Dressed up with the right flavours cabbage can be a great pasta substitute and an all-around go-to vegetable in your low-carb cooking itinerary. But let’s be straight with one another, cabbage will never be pasta.

Saying goodbye to pasta is always hard until you realise that it’s only a vehicle for the sauce! But, if you need ‘pasta’ to complete a dish, you can’t go wrong with these buttery cabbage noodles! 

You only need a few basic ingredients to whip up a batch of banana flapjacks. 

Before you use the almond pulp, make sure that you’ve squeezed out all excess liquid from the pulp.
