Zesty Steamed Cauliflower created by Pamela

I received this recipe in on of my daily e-mails from our local vegetable producer. I made it for a big group and it was so yummy that I had to share it. It has the cheesiness that most enjoy on cauliflower but with a bit of kick too.

I love cauliflower! This was tasty, but I thought there was too much mayo. Next time I'll cut back. I also added some Parmesan cheese, and a dash of cayenne.

I thought that this recipe sounded like a good idea. Unfortunately, I thought the final product was just ok. I followed the recipe as directed. I did get a better taste after I added some salt and pepper. Sorry I didn't like it better.

A great idea! I used extra sharp cheddar cheese, and only 3/4 of mayo. I steamed the cauliflower for about 15 minutes in the microwave and only about 7 minutes more to heat the cheese. It didn't get nicely browned, but it kept the kitchen cool!

This was my first attempt at making a whole cauliflower without chopping it up first. I think I may have steamed it too long as I found it too mushy texture wise and I had a bit of trouble getting it out of the pot without it smushing. The flavour was delicious and I only wish the rest of my family enjoyed cauliflower so I could make this again soon. Thanks for posting.
