I have seen several recipes for creamed cabbage and creamed spinach side dishes before, and this seems to be much healthier and lightened up than most. Many call for heavy cream or even cream cheese as the sauce base - both of which are much higher in calories and fat. Leftover cubed ham would be an amazing addition to turn it into a complete meal!

A 4-oz can of chopped green chilies might be good in place of those pimientos.

I am not a fan of using condensed soups. I made this with a thick basic white sauce and stirred in cooked, crispy bacon crumbles at the ending of cooking time.

IT is all personal preference ... MR food's recipes are "quck & easy" as he always says You can use mushrooms or even tomatoes if you prefer instead of pimentos or just leave them out and cornstarch is no more or less "healthy" than mushroom soup Mom has used mushroom soup longer than i can remember and she is 87 also Grandma used mushroom soups celerys soup and tomato soups in many dishes Grandma lived to 98 years old one month short of her 99th birthday!
