Remove any tattered or bruised leaves from cabbage. Cut into quarters and then cut out the core. Slice the cabbage quarters into thin shreds with a knife..
Heat oil in a large skillet or Dutch oven over medium high heat. Add garlic, turmeric, and red pepper flakes. Sauté for ~30 seconds.
Add cabbage and salt to skillet. It may seem like too much, but as it cooks down it will reduce in size.
Cook for ~5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally. You want the cabbage to be tender, but still have some bite it.
Squeeze the juice from a few lemon wedges over the cabbage. Taste and adjust with more salt, pepper, and lemon juice as desired.
Pair cabbage with a protein, whole grain, and low-fat dairy for a balanced meal. It makes a nice addition to tacos or burrito bowls.
