    This wedge salad is PERFECT for the colder months when you want a salad but also want something warm. And if you've never had roasted cabbage, then you NEED to try it! I could eat these cabbage wedges on their own...they're that good! But the addition of the toppings and chipotle ranch take this to another level. This salad is comforting, delicious and simple!

    How to make the roasted cabbage wedges

    Roasting the cabbage is beyond easy. Quarter a cabbage - being sure to leave the stem intact so that the wedges stay together. Place the wedges on a parchment lined baking sheet and drizzle with olive oil, salt and pepper. Place in the oven and bake for 22 minutes - flipping after 12. Just be sure to roast the wedges cut-side down.

    When the wedges come out of the oven they will be slightly charred, tender, but still crunchy. You can let them cool slightly before serving, or assemble right out of the oven.

    How to make the salad toppings

    Add all of the vegan chipotle ranch ingredients to a food processor or blender and pulse until combined. If you like your dressing on the thinner side, you can add water or non-dairy milk. You likely won't use all of the dressing for this recipe - you can store leftovers in the fridge for 2-3 days.

    You will also need to brown the soyrizo. Heat some oil in a pan over medium heat. Add the soyrizo and crumble it with a wooden spoon. Cook for a few minutes, stirring frequently, until slightly browned. Remove from the heat and set aside.

    How to assemble this Southwest Roasted Cabbage Wedge Salad

    Now for the fun part...assembly. Place the cooked wedges on a plate and drizzle with the chipotle ranch. Top with soyrizo, corn, cherry tomatoes and chopped cilantro. Grab a knife & fork and dig in.

    This salad is not only tasty, it is fun to make and pretty to look at. This is a show stopping salad you can make for guests and totally impress with!

      Phenomenal! We both loved it. Next time, and there will be a next time, I will cut up the cabbage before roasting it. My husband has a hard time chewing somethings. There was extra dressing. YIPPEE!
