I made this recipe on 8/12/12 for the " Beach Party " in the Food Photo Forum. Except for using Asiago cheese and leaving out the green onions, the recipe was made as written. I really enjoyed the " tangy " taste that the mayonnaise gave this dish. Thanks for posting and, " Keep Smiling :) "

I made this for our early Easter dinner when I was pressed for time and couldn't make an elaborate broccoli and cauliflower dish. Everyone loved this! I had no onions, so left those out, and added a little olive oil to the bread crumbs. Otherwise, it was very rich and tasty, and the cayenne added a nice little kick. I would recommend this!

Yum! This was great! I used a whole head of cauliflower cuz that's what I had. My five year old and three year old smacked it down with glee! I had maybe three big bites left that are in the frig for tomorrow... I will certainly be making this again soon. Nice blend of flavors. Thanks!
