Looking for a healthy, unique option for dinner tonight? This cabbage zucchini and cheese casserole debunks all cabbage criticism! Rarely do we think of cabbage as anything more than a topping, after-thought, or St. Patrick’s Day side…until now. This recipe changes all that!
Not only is this an inexpensive and easy dish, but it’s healthy, hearty and surprisingly filling as well. Put a whole head of cabbage to good use with this cheesy, hot-from-the-oven baked casserole. You can have it for brunch, lunch, or dinner, and since it mainly utilizes ingredients you’re likely to have on hand already, it’s also a great end-of-the-week, time-saving meal.
