Cooking Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Melt 2 tablespoons of the butter in a large skillet set over medium. Add cabbage, celery, onions, and garlic, and cook, stirring often, until tender, 10 to 15 minutes. Transfer to a 3-quart lightly greased (with cooking spray) baking dish.
  • Melt 2 tablespoons of the butter in a medium saucepan over medium; whisk in flour, and cook, whisking constantly, until smooth and thick, about 1 minute. Gradually add milk to saucepan, whisking constantly to remove any clumps. Cook, whisking constantly, until thickened and smooth, about 3 minutes. Remove from heat, and whisk in Worcestershire, salt, pepper, and ½ cup of the Parmesan until smooth. Pour sauce over cabbage mixture.
  • Place remaining 1 tablespoon butter in microwavable bowl, and microwave on HIGH until melted, about 30 seconds. Add breadcrumbs and remaining ½ cup Parmesan to melted butter, and stir until combined. Sprinkle breadcrumb mixture evenly over cabbage.
  • Bake in preheated oven until casserole is bubbly and breadcrumbs are golden, 20 to 25 minutes.

Notes

Cabbage casserole is a great side dish when your produce drawer is overflowing with cabbage. You can also freeze it for later use.
