Instructions: Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Cut cabbage coarsely (be careful not to get core pieces) and steam in small amount of water until tender.

Drain well. While cabbage is cooling, prepare white sauce. After white sauce is prepared, make buttered bread crumbs. Melt butter in frying pan, add bread crumbs and saute until lightly browned. Set aside. Place 1/3 of cabbage in bottom of greased 2 quart casserole dish. Add 1/2 cup white sauce and 1/3 of cheese. Continue layering, ending with cheese. Sprinkle with buttered bread crumbs. Bake uncovered at 400 degrees for approximately 1/2 hour or until cheese is melted and casserole is bubbly. If using oven for entree at 350 degrees, bake for approximately one hour.
