Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 head (medium) green cabbage
- 2 cups grated sharp cheddar cheese
- 1 cup mayonnaise
- 1 cup sour cream
- 1 small onion, finely chopped
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1.5 cups Ritz crackers, crushed
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon ground black pepper
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. While waiting, core the cabbage and chop it into bite-sized pieces.
Add the chopped cabbage to the boiling water and cook for 5-7 minutes until tender but not mushy. Drain well and set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the mayonnaise, sour cream, chopped onion, salt, and black pepper. Mix until smooth.
Fold the drained cabbage into the mayonnaise mixture, ensuring the cabbage is evenly coated.
Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with unsalted butter or cooking spray, and spoon the cabbage mixture evenly into the dish.
Sprinkle the grated cheddar cheese over the top of the cabbage mixture.
Melt the unsalted butter in a small saucepan or microwave-safe dish. In a separate bowl, mix the crushed Ritz crackers with the melted butter until evenly coated.
Spread the buttered crackers evenly over the cheese layer in the casserole dish.
Bake the casserole in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the cracker topping is golden brown and the casserole is bubbling around the edges.
Remove from the oven and let cool for 5 minutes before serving.
Serve the casserole warm as a side dish or main course.
