1 tsp. salt
3 TBSP butter
3 TBSP flour
2 cups milk
salt and pepper to taste
1 cup shredded cheese (your choice of flavor)

Wash the cabbage. Use a sharp knife to cut the cabbage into bite
sized pieces. In a large pot add cabbage pieces. Add 1 tsp. salt and
enough water to cover the cabbage--turn heat to medium, bring to a
boil and cook cabbage until tender, then drain and set aside. In a
saucepan over low heat add butter--melt. Add flour--stir. Add milk
slowly--stir and bring to a boil. Taste--add salt and pepper to your
taste and stir--set aside. Grease a 2 qt. casserole dish--layer cabbage
and shredded cheese back and forth, ending up with cabbage on the
top. Carefully pour the milk sauce on top of the top cabbage layer. Cut
the bread slices (buttered or not) into bite sized pieces and place
them on top of the final cabbage layer. Place casserole dish on top of
