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

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

Step 2

Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. While waiting, core the cabbage and chop it into bite-sized pieces.

Step 3

Add the chopped cabbage to the boiling water and cook for 5-7 minutes until tender but not mushy. Drain well and set aside.

Step 4

In a large mixing bowl, combine the mayonnaise, sour cream, chopped onion, salt, and black pepper. Mix until smooth.

Step 5

Fold the drained cabbage into the mayonnaise mixture, ensuring the cabbage is evenly coated.

Step 6

Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with unsalted butter or cooking spray, and spoon the cabbage mixture evenly into the dish.

Step 7

Sprinkle the grated cheddar cheese over the top of the cabbage mixture.

Step 8

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.

Step 9

Spread the buttered crackers evenly over the cheese layer in the casserole dish.

Step 10

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.

Step 11

Remove from the oven and let cool for 5 minutes before serving.

Step 12

Serve the casserole warm as a side dish or main course.
