Company Cabbage

"Another down home recipe, this one came from my mother. Cooking times are approximate, each oven is different. Personally, I use 4 or 5 tablespoons of the chili sauce and 3 or 4 shakes of Tobasco sauce. Of course I always add extra cheese! This easy recipe lends itself to being adjusted to suit your tastes. Enjoy"

I enjoyed this recipe. To suit our tastes, we like our sauces more sparse but thicker so I cut back the milk abit & increased the flour slightly. I can't do mayo so I sub'd yogurt/cream cheese for the mayonnaise. Also used coconut oil for the margarine. I liked the addition of the green peppers & onions and enjoyed the splash of flavour from the chili & hot sauce. Nice recipe, thanks for sharing.
