My mother always made this dish as a treat, and now I do too. The combination of ingredients is just right—white sauce and cheese complement the flavor of the cabbage so well that even people who don't care for leafy greens like it! &Freda Willoughby, Medical Lake, Washington

Ingredients

  • 1/2 medium head cabbage, chopped (about 4 cups)
  • 3 tablespoons canola oil
  • 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour

Scalloped Cabbage Tips

How old is this scalloped cabbage recipe?

Scalloped cabbage has been a popular side dish for over 100 years. Thanks to its simple, affordable ingredients, it was particularly common in times of scarcity, such as during World War I. Home cooks could leave out pricier ingredients (like the shredded cheese) when times were tough or food rations were in place. Find more thrifty Great Depression-era recipes.

How can you make this scalloped cabbage recipe your own?

For your own unique spin on scalloped cabbage, feel free to switch up the cheese. Swap in Parmesan, Gruyère, fontina or a cheese blend for the cheddar. You can also use crushed crackers in place of the breadcrumbs. Buttery options, like Ritz crackers, work best.

What can you serve with scalloped cabbage?

Serve scalloped cabbage with your favorite meat. It’s delicious with roast pork, steak or chicken. Round out the meal with homemade applesauce and dinner rolls. —Katie Bandurski, Taste of Home Associate Editor
