Ingredients

• 1 large onion, chopped

• salt and ground black pepper to taste
• 1 tablespoon minced garlic
• 1 (10.5 ounce) can condensed cream of mushroom soup

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

Step 2

Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add cabbage and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender, about 5 minutes. Drain thoroughly.

Step 3

Melt 5 tablespoons butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add onion and garlic; saute until onion is translucent, about 5 minutes. Stir in condensed soup and poppy seeds. Add 8 ounces Cheddar cheese; stir until melted. Remove from the heat and stir in drained cabbage, sour cream, salt, and pepper. Transfer to a 2-quart baking dish.

Step 4

Melt remaining 1 tablespoon butter in a small skillet over medium-low heat. Add bread crumbs; cook and stir until lightly browned. Sprinkle over the casserole with remaining Cheddar.

Step 5

Bake, uncovered, in the preheated oven until heated through, 20 to 30 minutes.
