Just like your food should be well rounded and balanced. So, should your meal plan. If you are spending the day making just the main dish, you are going to need a quick simple side that can help the main dish shine while still sticking out on its own. That is what I love about the Sautéed Onion Mustard Cabbage, takes minutes to prep and has subtle yet bold flavors, and can be universally served.
Nothing goes better with corned beef than cabbage, and there is nothing better to season cabbage with than some mustard. Toss some onions in some butter add the cabbage some mustard and there you have it, folks, Sautéed onion mustard cabbage.
Man, that was the easiest post I have ever done. That really is all there is too Sautéed onion mustard cabbage.
So why don’t I just stop rambling and give you the recipe? I would but for web rankings, it is recommended that I write at least 300 words per post. Not to mention write the focus world/phrase, Sautéed onion mustard cabbage, multi times in those 300 words.
I know it is super annoying you just want the recipe. Go to the top of the page and click the button that says go to recipe and skip all this, it’s okay I understand, in today’s day and age we want instant gratification.
But!! It is the truth, us food bloggers do like to write about things, we try to make them relevant to the topic, aka, the recipe at hand Sautéed onion mustard cabbage, but the main reason you the reader gets annoyed is we do it all for the rankings, the organic search boast, the SEO of it all. I promise we don’t write word after word after, as some of you put it, another pointless word when all you want is a recipe. No, we do it to get a better ranking on Google. Selfish, I know.
But! The higher up we rank the more clicks we get the more people we help make incredibly delicious meals, so, on the contrary, it is anything but selfish.
Okay, I think I met my word quota… enjoy this Sautéed onion mustard cabbage recipe (hahaha see what I did there, yep the last paragraph focus word champ…rankings)
All that is left is for you to grab yourself a drink, put on some good music, and get cookin’!! This Sautéed onion mustard cabbage goes great with Ginger Stout Corn Beef and Buttery Carrot and Potato Wedges!

I hope you enjoyed the silly side of me, I honestly had writer’s block and had nothing really to say after the first paragraph, but those 300 words sometimes, so annoying!
I love the mustard in this recipe. I think it would give it such a great flavour. Will be trying this recipe this weekend 🙂
Thank you so much!! Let me know what you think!! And remember recipes are only guidelines if you like a lot of mustard flavor don’t be afraid to add more if you want just a hint, add less.
Onion and mustard is one of my favourite combo – I know it might sound weird. Adding cabbage can only make it better.
No, I get it!! I love dipping my pretzels into mustard my friends think I am weird, but it is so good, and I add onions to EVERYTHING!! SO no, does not sound weird at all I get you!!
I love making cabbage for a side. Never have used mustard, but I think I’ll give it a try!
A lot of people add vinegar to the cabbage to add some tang so if you like zesty tangy this is the recipe for you!!
yumm sounds so yummy and healthy!
Thank you
I love how visually appealing this is! The purple makes it look so gorgeous! Looks like a great side dish to any meat entree!
Thank you so much!! I love adding purple cabbage it just makes it look more appealing and as we say in the food world people eat with their eyes first!!
oh wow never thought of adding onions or mustard with cabbage before but sounds so good. This would be a great warm slaw for hot dogs or even chicken now that I think about it. yum!
MMMM, on a smoked sausage instead of sauerkraut!! Your comment made me hungry!! Thank you!!
Haha! So funny! I love cabbage in anything and purple cabbage adds such a beautiful pop of colour….perfect for a cold winter day! I bet this would also be lovely piled high on a sandwich! Now I’m hungry 😉
Mission accomplished!! As a fellow food blogger, you know our goal is to make people hungry lol. It honestly is amazing piled high on a pastrami or corned beef sandwich on rye, I love also stuffing it in a panini on a cold day!! Hope you are having a wonderful Valentines Day!!
This looks like a really great addition to any meal! Yum!
Thank you!! It is and it is so easy it is perfect for weeknight meals!
lol at the word count! hahaha I’m always thinking the same thing, however this is a great looking dish. I’m going to give it a try.
Hahahaha!!! I have been waiting since I posted this post yesterday for someone to say something about the word count thank you!! and thank you for saying it looks like a great dish!!
This sounds like a delicious side! I will have to give it a try!
Thank you!!
I wanna try this for my son, it oddly sounds like something he’d like
I really hope he does!! My son loved it, but my daughter she doesn’t like mustard or cabbage, however, she ate it just to get her dessert lol so I would say I am 1 for 2 lol
This looks so good! I love this side dish idea. So many times I just make a main dish and am lost for what to make when it feels like it needs something more. This is perfect and I will add this to my recipes to try app!
Awesome!! I always try to add to all my main dishes what I served it with. There is nothing worse than sitting down to a meal and feeling like something is missing or even worse they just don’t go together. LOL I have been there and done that!!
I am starting to like cabbage. I will try this. I like the colors and knowing that the more colors you have in your food the better it is for you.
I learned a while ago that it really depends on how cabbage is cooked. Sometimes it can be a little bitter, which is why I like to season with something acidic it helps mellow out the bitterness!
I so love cabbage, it’s something that I enjoy on holidays. But I would love to make this on any night looks so delicious.
Thank you!! I love cabbage too, it is affordable so so diverse, truly amazing!
This looks so healthy and delicious! I am going to make it for sure over the long weekend 🙂
