How To Make Brenda Gantt Cabbage Casserole

1. Prep work: Preheat the oven to 350°F (180ºC) and lightly grease a 9x13 baking dish.

2. Mix the ingredients: Mix the cream of chicken soup, mayo, and melted butter in a mixing bowl until everything combines into a smooth mixture. Set it aside for later.

3. Make the topping: In a separate bowl, mix the butter, shredded cheddar cheese, and Ritz crackers until they fully combine and slightly stick together.

4. Build the casserole: Spread the roughly chopped cabbage on the bottom of the prepared casserole dish. Top the cabbage with the coarsely chopped sweet onion and sprinkle it with salt and pepper. Gradually spoon the cream of chicken soup mixture over the cabbage and onions. Evenly top the casserole with the cracker topping.

5. Bake and serve: Bake the cabbage casserole for 35-45 minutes or until the casserole is bubbly and the topping is golden brown. Remove it from the oven and serve warm. Enjoy!

• Swap the crackers for bread crumbs for a different topping texture.
• Serve the cabbage casserole with sour cream on top for a creamier flavor.
