    This is a great way to serve cauliflower. We loved the creamy cheesy sauce (I used cheddar) and the crunchy topping. A wonderful side dish that is easy to prepare. I'm so glad I found this. :-)

    This is delicious! I made sure to use fresh shredded Parmesan, but also added a fresh Italian blend as well (Asiago, etc). I used a bit less swiss, and used baby swiss. Delicious cold or warm! I plan on making it again this weekend!

    Was super easy and VERY good, was a real crowd pleaser. I followed the recipe but added a little more cheese and some bacon bits.

    Fantastic comfort food and so easy! I doubled the recipe by using a head of fresh cauliflower, microwaved for 8 minutes instead of boiling it, and an additional bag of previously frozen broccoli/cauliflower mix. I doubled the cream and Colby Jack cheese for the extra veggies and I also made it lower carb by using crushed pork rinds instead of the breadcrumbs. I think I could eat the whole pan myself! This one is a definite keeper!

    This is delicious and I will definitely be making this again..I loved the cream flavour and the breadcrumb topping..I used cheddar cheese. The best part was its not stodgy like some cauliflower and cheese recipes can be..a favourite for sure.
