Grilled cabbage wedges with apple-bacon vinaigrette
Cut cabbage and build the vinaigrette base a day ahead. Grill, then dress only when it leaves the kitchen.
This is the base recipe: one batch, 8 portions. Nothing has been scaled, because there is no committed plan for this dish. Build and commit a plan that includes it and this card multiplies itself to the batch count the plan computes.
Refrigerate cabbage and dressing separately up to four days. Reheat wedges at 400°F for 8–10 minutes. Also good at room temperature.

Multiplying the ingredients is the easy half. These are the parts of the recipe that the batch count does not move.
- Cooking time
- About 15 minutes on the stove at this scale. Bringing a bigger volume up to temperature takes longer than the multiple suggests; the simmer afterwards does not.
- Read the whole method before you shop. This is a planning recipe for grilled cabbage wedges with apple-bacon vinaigrette, not a certified kitchen test.
- Amounts below are one batch: 8 portions. Build a plan and this card scales itself to it.
- This dish can be completed up to 1 day ahead. Cold storage is the real limit — do not make it ahead if the fridge is already tight.
- Use the declared outdoor heat. If no grill was declared, this dish should not be on the route — the plan stops rather than guessing.
- Season, cook to the stated doneness, rest, then slice.
- Holds about 40 minutes once finished. After that, quality drops — do not invent extra time.
- Leftover route: Refrigerate cabbage and dressing separately up to four days. Reheat wedges at 400°F for 8–10 minutes. Also good at room temperature.
- Confirm every ingredient and every allergen yourself. Dietary tags are planning filters, not safety guarantees.
Can be completed up to 1 day ahead. Fridge units: 1 per batch, so 1 batch takes about 1 shelf-thirds while it waits.
Base recipe: one batch, 8 portions. Nothing has been scaled, because no plan was open. Cooking time does not move with the batch: about 15 minutes at the stove either way.
Not every line here was multiplied by the same number. Why doubling a recipe is not multiplication
