Cabbage Wedges With Cheese Sauce - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1 head green cabbage (3 pounds)
1/2 cup green bell pepper, chopped
1/4 cup onion, chopped
1/4 cup butter or 1/4 cup margarine
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon pepper
2 cups milk
3/4 cup cheddar cheese, shredded
1/2 cup mayonnaise or 1/2 cup Miracle Whip
3 tablespoons bottled chili sauce

Preparation

Cut cabbage into 8 wedges, leaving a bit of the core on each to help hold eachpiece together.
Bring a pot of water to boil and steam cabbage wedges, covered, until crisp-tender, approximately 10-15 minutes.
Drain and remove the core, then set wedges in a greased 9x13\" casserole.
For the sauce, in a medium pot, saute green pepper and onion in butter until tender.
Add flour, salt and pepper, stirring quickly, and cook until it gets bubbly.
Add milk slowly, whisking, then cook and stir until sauce thickens.
Pour over cabbage.
Bake, uncovered, at 375 F for 15 minutes.
Meanwhile, mix together cheese,mayo, and chili sauce; ladle over the cabbage wedges and return to oven for 5 more minutes.
