You might not be a big fan of cabbage but I assure you, after just one bite of this escalloped cabbage casserole you’ll be sold! This is absolutely amazing in terms of taste and quality. Plus, it’s insanely easy to make.
Check out what my pals over at The Pioneer Woman had to say about this recipe:
“This is a version of a recipe from my husband’s beloved grandmother, Edna Mae. And that means just one thing: It is going to be splendidly delicious! All things from Edna Mae generally are. It’s a cheesy, satisfying cabbage casserole that’s perfect as a side dish with things like beef brisket or roasted chicken, and it’s also delicious served with a salad and a chunk of bread.”
Whenever I hear that a recipe has been adapted from someone’s grandmaother I get excited because I know I’m in for a real flavor fest!
Ingredients
1 head Cabbage, Cut Into 6 Or 8 Wedges
2 Tablespoons Land O Lakes Butter, Plus More For Greasing The Pan
2 Tablespoons Gold Medal Flour
1-1/2 cup TruMoo Milk
1 whole Container Cheez Wiz
Salt And Pepper, to taste
1 cup Kraft Grated Pepper Jack Cheese
1 whole Jalapeno Pepper, Sliced Into Rounds, Seeds Removed
McCormick Paprika For Sprinkling
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Butter a 9-inch-by-9-inch baking pan.
Bring a medium pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Parboil the wedges of cabbage for 1 – 2 minutes. Drain very well, slice off the cores, then arrange in the prepared baking dish.
In a nonstick skillet over medium heat, melt the butter. Whisk in the flour and cook for a minute or two. Whisk in the milk and cook until beginning to thicken. Turn off the heat and stir in the Cheez Wiz. Sprinkle in salt and pepper, then stir in the grated pepper jack. Pour over the cabbage. Dot with the jalapeno slices, and sprinkle on some paprika. Bake for 20 minutes or until golden and bubbly.
Note: This makes a good amount of cheese sauce, so could be enough for more cabbage if desired.
