Layer in thin slices of kielbasa - between cabbage... Next time - may do cooked Italian sausage. Many options...

Want to try this - but what do you suggest serving with it?
Am thinking corn bread - but there has to be something else...

Thank you all for your posts... I need to try again. I haven't cooked it in a long time. We are having church lunch this Sunday so I'm gonna try some these things y'all tried

Substitute cream of chicken for mushroom soup.

Kay, this sounds phenomenal; my taste buds are popping all over the place in anticipation!! Will be trying your recipe in the next week or two. Thanks so much for posting!

Excellent use of cabbage. I added a good few dashes of woozy sauce and used Colby Monterey jack cheese along with corn flake crumbs for topping. Loved how recipe allowed cabbage to remain fairly crisp versus limp. Have also used zucchini and squash along with cabbage to add variety and use up odd and end veggies in fridge. BTW, only had a cream of potato and cream of chicken soup so went with it. Worked great. As another reviewer noted, this recipe lends itself to a multitude of variations! Great base as it is or with sensible additions/adjustments. Thanks for posting!!

This is a good recipe for cabbage. It was creamy. I substituted a good cajun sausage for the ground beef.

Try using corn flakes instead of ritz crackers

I used this recipe as a base for a lo-carb tuna casserole. I followed the instructions here but added a layer of sliced mushrooms, diced carrots, edamame, and tuna before adding the soup which I misked with buttermilk and fresh dill (no mayo). I didn't use the ritz crackers nor the butter. It turned out to be quite tasty.

Hi. You can play around with it, but I like the original.
Later, Marian

I didn't have a 2nd can of mushroom soup so I used a can of chicken gravy and added fresh mushrooms...worked out great! With the onions, I sauteed it a little before adding to soup mixture. This is a great recipe that you can play around with. I'm passing it along! Thank you for sharing.

Yes any cream of soup is good.. Its whatever you like.. Haven't tried it with celery, sounds good..

Try it with cream of celery soup in place of the cream of mushroom soup. Yummy.
