Ingredients

  • 5 medium potatoes
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 1/4 - 1/2 cup skim milk
  • 4 tablespoons 4% low-fat cheese
  • 1 cup diced ham
  • 2 cups chopped cabbage
  • salt & pepper
  • paprika (if you dare) or cayenne pepper (if you dare)
  • cooking spray (I use the olive oil one)

Method

  • Boil potatoes . Partially boil cabbage at the same time as potatoes, in separate pot.
  • Mash potatoes adding milk, cheese, onion, salt and pepper. Mix in a large bowl with ham and half cooked chopped cabbage.
  • If you prefer it not quite so creamy just use 1/4 cup of skim milk.
  • Spray a casserole dish with cooking spray and lightly line with a few cooked cabbage leaves. Plop in mixture, sprinkle with paprika or cayenne and cover.
  • Warm in 200-250 degree oven for approximately 1 hour or more. If you keep it in longer, keep your eye out that it doesn`t burn or get dry.I`ve had mine in for two hours and it was fine.
  • Just before you`re ready to pop it out of the oven, turn on the broiler, take off the lid and give it a wee bit of browning on top.
  • This can also be done on the stove top fried in some butter or this way with the left-overs -- yumm -- but beware of the added fat and calories!
  • 1 cup = 129 calories and 1.6 grams of fat.
