Cheesy Cauliflower
"I originally got this recipe out of a Taste of Home book years ago and have been making it ever since--and always at Thanksgiving. It can be dressed up to look as elegant or plain as you want to, and only takes about 18 minutes to make--start to finish. It is my 6 year olds most requested vegetable and always a hit. Ingredient amounts are just approximates, as I usually just make it by sight. Adjust as needed to your own taste."

- Meanwhile, mix mayo and mustards in separate bowl until it suits your taste.
- When cauliflower is done, spread mayo/mustard mixture all over the top so it covers most of the cauliflower.

Thanks for sharing this recipe. I made this for dinner yesterday and my roommate who does not even like cauliflower at half of the casserole. The mustard adds a nice kick. -
Well, I am rating it 4 stars based on the adults preferences. The kids did not go for the mustard flavor. I reduced the mayo a bit and added some broccoli. May try again and reduce the mustard or try something else! :) Thanks.

As a stay at home mom of four children (ages 10-2) I find myself to be constantly on-the-go. Soccor games, cub scouts, school plays, and so forth can really keep a person going....For relaxation I like to do counted cross stitch, but for fun I LOVE to cook and try new recipes...I often hear "Oh no, mom's experimenting again." I like to have my kids "help" in the kithen, so often we have "crunchy" scrambled eggs, and so forth...(You get the picture). Mom was never much of a cook, I grew up thinking mashed potatoes came from a box and gravy came from a jar....I don't even want to go to where tomato sauce came from...(Yes, Heinz..LOL) I don't know where my love of cooking came from, as I remember my sister recently saying..."this is really good, I don't remember you ever being a good cook before."
