Instructions:
| Step | Description |
|---|---|
| 1 | Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). |
| 2 | Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. |
| 3 | Meanwhile, remove the tough outer leaves from the cabbage, cut into wedges, and remove the core. |
| 4 | Add the cabbage wedges to the boiling water and cook for about 2 minutes. This blanching process helps soften the cabbage. |
| 5 | Drain the cabbage thoroughly in a colander and set aside. |
| 6 | In a mixing bowl, combine the cream of mushroom soup, milk, and grated Parmesan cheese. Mix well until smooth and creamy. |
| 7 | Butter a large casserole dish to prevent sticking. |
| 8 | Arrange half of the blanched cabbage wedges in the bottom of the casserole dish. |
| 9 | Spoon half of the creamy soup mixture over the cabbage, spreading it evenly. |
| 10 | Repeat with another layer of cabbage wedges and the remaining soup mixture. |
| 11 | In a small bowl, mix together the melted butter and bread crumbs until well combined. |
| 12 | Sprinkle the buttery bread crumbs evenly over the top of the cabbage and soup layers. This adds a delightful crunch and flavor to the dish. |
| 13 | Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes or until the top is golden brown and the dish is hot and bubbly. |
| 14 | Once done, remove from the oven and let it cool slightly before serving. |
Serving Suggestions:
Serve this delicious Baked Cabbage hot, straight from the oven, as a comforting side dish alongside your favorite protein or enjoy it as a vegetarian main dish. The creamy cheese sauce, tender cabbage, and crispy bread crumbs make for a satisfying and flavorful meal. 🍲✨
Recipe Notes:
- Cabbage Preparation: Blanche the cabbage briefly in boiling water to soften it before baking. This helps retain its crunch while ensuring it cooks through in the oven.
- Cheese Variation: Feel free to experiment with different cheeses for varying flavors. Cheddar, Gruyère, or mozzarella can also work well.
- Make-Ahead: You can assemble this dish ahead of time and refrigerate it until you’re ready to bake. Just add a few extra minutes to the baking time if it’s chilled.
- Leftovers: Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven or microwave until heated through.
This Baked Cabbage recipe is a fantastic way to enjoy this humble vegetable in a new and delicious way. Creamy, cheesy, and with a crispy topping, it’s sure to become a family favorite! 🥰✨
