Notes

  • Keep an eye on the butter as it melts so it doesn't brown.
  • Substitute margarine for butter, if needed. 
  • I shred my green cabbage on the thicker side.  If you shred yours thin, adjust the cooking time.
  • Be sure you're using unsweetened cornflakes not Frosted Flakes!
  • This is a great way to use up leftover spiral or holiday ham; however, Canadian Bacon or deli ham works too!
  • If desired, substitute cream of chicken or cream of mushroom for cream of celery.
  • The cabbage cooks down quite a bit, so don't be concerned if it's mounded up a bit in the baking dish. 
  • This dish is steaming hot when it comes out of the oven; let it rest for around 15 minutes before serving and eating.
