This side dish offers a welcome change from side dishes that feature potatoes or pasta. The cheesy flavor should win over most people who taste this. Since I am not a fan of cabbage, I would substitute it with extra sliced mushrooms. I would also use skim milk and reduced fat cheddar cheese when making this dish. To make sure that there is enough for everyone to eat, I would double the recipe.
