Baked Cauliflower in Cheese Sauce image

Baked cauliflower in a creamy cheese sauce that doesn't use cream-of-X soup. Note: I have made this with skim milk and lowfat cheese and it works, but you have to cook the sauce longer to get it to thicken.

Categories     Cauliflower

Time 35m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 head cauliflower (large)
2 tablespoons butter
6 tablespoons flour
1 pinch hot red pepper flakes
2 cups milk
1 -2 cup cheese, grated (I like cheddar or marble)
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder (optional)
salt and pepper (optional)

Steps:

  • Cut cauliflower into bite size pieces and steam until just tender.
  • While it is steaming, melt the butter and add the red pepper flakes and garlic powder (if using).
  • Add the flour and mix until smooth and thickened.
  • Mix in the milk a bit at a time stirring each time until smooth.
  • Cook, stirring constantly, over a medium heat until thick and creamy (this takes awhile).
  • Add 1 cup cheese cheese and stir until melted.
  • Remove sauce from heat and salt and pepper the sauce to taste.
  • Spread the cauliflower in a 9 x 13 pan (or casserole dish).
  • Pour the cheese sauce evenly over the cauliflower and then sprinkle with 1 cup cheese (if desired).
  • Bake at 350 F until cheese is melted.

This dish was a bit too rich for my taste, but it was still good. I would recommend using a lighter cheese sauce next time.

This dish was a disaster! The cauliflower was mushy and the cheese sauce was watery. I would not recommend this recipe.

The cauliflower was a bit bland, but the cheese sauce was delicious. I would recommend adding some herbs or spices to the cauliflower before baking.
