Cabbage Casserole

I really don’t have an exact recipe for this, it was given to me word of mouth by via a friend's older sister. It's very simple and tasty!

You will need:
1 cabbage
Ground beef or turkey
Shredded cheese

Chop up 1 cabbage and cover with water
Salt and pepper
Cook until done
Drain the cabbage but, save the broth that you boiled the cabbage in.

In a deep skillet , brown 1lb of ground beef or however much you want to use

Remove from the skillet

Melt 1 stick of butter or margarine
Mix with 3/4 cup of flour until it is all incorporated
Salt and pepper to taste
Add the broth from the cabbage a little at a time until thickened

Layers for the casserole:

first layer of cabbage
Ground beef
Cheese
White sauce
Finish with cheese on top

Bake in a 350 degree oven for 30 mins

I've also seen this recipe, but just add a little bit of rice to it to add texture and make it more filling! Then, it's like stuffed cabbage rolls, but easier to make because you just layer it.

Good idea! I will have to try that next time. Thanks!
