I'm not a big fan of cauliflower, but this dish was surprisingly good. The cheese and bacon really helped to improve the flavor.

This recipe was easy to follow and the dish turned out great! The cauliflower was tender and flavorful, and the toppings were a perfect complement.

This dish was a bit too cheesy for my taste. I think I would have enjoyed it more if there had been less cheese and more other toppings.
