Personally I wouldn't. Parsley works great with fish dishes where cilantro (or coriander) has a flavour best suited to dishes which contain spices, such as Indian and Mexican food.

I have used coriander in Sandwiches and burgers and it's awesome

Parsley is quite mild as far as herbs go. On the other hand, Cilantro has bite and is quite peppery. Both are very good for you, as they are both high in chlorophyll. Parsley is also typically used as a garnish and to add color. Try it and see what happens. You may be pleasantly surprised with the results.

Cilantro is coriander, to use this to replace a green vegetable would be a little strange.

How about cabbage?

Is cilantro the same as flat leaf parsley and can you use it in a recipe calling for flat leaf parsley?

While cilantro and parsley are different herbs, many different sources indicate that cilantro can be used as a substitute for parsley. Those same sources indicate that chervil is the best substitute; so, if you have any chervil, you might want to use that instead. The measurements appear to be the same. In other words, if your recipe calls for 1 tsp. of parsley, you would use 1 tsp. of cilantro or 1 tsp. of chervil.

You can use other greens, such as Swiss chard, collards, or spinach.

Spinach cooks the fastest, then chard, then kale, then collards. It may not matter, depending on what you're making.
