This casserole was a bit bland for my taste. I think it could have used more seasoning or a different type of sauce.

This casserole was a bit too spicy for my taste. I would recommend using less buffalo sauce or adding some sour cream to tone down the heat.

I'm not a fan of buffalo sauce, but I still enjoyed this casserole. The cauliflower was cooked perfectly and the cheese was melted and gooey.

This casserole was a bit too greasy for my taste. I think it could have been baked for a little less time.

I found this casserole to be too spicy. I would recommend using less buffalo sauce if you don't like spicy food.

I love this recipe! It's so easy to make and it's always a crowd-pleaser. I like to add a little extra cheese to the top for an extra cheesy crust.

This cauliflower buffalo chicken casserole was a hit with my family! The cauliflower was a great substitute for chicken, and the buffalo sauce gave it a nice kick. I will definitely be making this again.
