Nutrition

1

large cauliflower, steamed till crisp o r tender and broken up into small florets
white pepper
¹⁄₂

cup grated parmesan cheese
1

cup shredded cheddar cheese
1

cup shredded swiss cheese
1 ¹⁄₂

cups half-and-half, beaten with
2

whole eggs
¹⁄₂

cup dry breadcrumbs, lightly fried in
2

tablespoons butter

DIRECTIONS

Lightly butter a 13 X 9" pyrex baking dish and put in cauliflower.
Season lightly with white pepper and sprinkle all the cheeses over.
Beat the eggs into the half and half (you can also use 1 1/2 cups milk, 2 eggs and 1 tblsp cornflour as a sub). Pour over cauliflower-cheese mixture and top with buttered breadcrumbs.
Bake in a 375F oven until lightly golden-brown.
Allow to cool slightly before serving.
This is also super good at room temperature or cold.
(Try it for breakfast!) Reheats well, so can be made in advance- just pour a couple of tablespoonfuls of cream (or milk) over for moisture.
