I want to make this again before I rate it. I think I undercooked it, but it was good as leftovers!

I made as directed and DH and I really loved this dish, as we like cauliflower anyway and are always looking for a way to dress it up nice! This dish also puts out a very appetizing aroma throughout the house! Thanks, Cookgirl! Made for the Unrulies Under the Influence for ZWT6.

This was very good for cauliflower and vegetarian. I'm not sure what Greek oregano is so I used regular oregano in half the amount. I left out the bay leaf out of dislike. I served this with Recipe #108262 without the hot pepper and Balkan (thick) plain yogurt which went well.

A big hit... would have been even better if I hadn't rushed it a bit and had had more tomatoes. I threw this together at the last minute when I was faced with a cooked plain cauliflower... very easy. Used fresh tomato
