"About 25 years ago a neighbor brought this to a potluck. It was the most talked about and surprise of a dish. Can divide and freeze before baking."

This was a very tasty dish. Made it to accompany Recipe #424661. They both went into the oven at the same time, and I was rewarded with a heart warming meal. As *Parsley* suggested, I used just 1 cup of evap milk. Thnx for sharing your recipe, gailanng. Made for the Voracious Vagabonds for ZWT6. -
Deeeeee-licious! I wan't sure I had the cabbage drained well enough, so I only used 1 cup of evap. milk. That worked out well. I loved all the flavors together. This was way more flavorful than the normal creamed cabbage. Thanx for sharing! -
This was pretty good. I also halved the recipe and I left out the bell pepper, because i didn't have any. Mine came out a little watery, but not too bad. It had good flavor but I still felt like it was missing something. Made for PRMR Tag.

Wow - this was incredible! I love cabbage, and it's great to have another way to prepare it. I did halve the recipe, and made exactly as instructed. However, I wish I knew exactly how much cabbage (cups) to use. Perhaps my small cabbage was too small, because there did seem to be some excess liquid in my dish. However, it did not diminish the taste at all. I think this will make a great and unique addition to my Thanksgiving table! Thanks so much for posting this winner!

I'm just me, mother, grandmother...friend to many and a Louisianian. My Cajun and French Quarter Italian descent afforded me exposure to some of the best of foods. My passions are my family, decorating, cooking and gardening. Those very passions push me into constant awareness with always looking for something new to delight the senses, thus my favorite idiom...Inspire me, puuuullllllleeeeeeease! ...and I mean it, too.
