Cauliflower and Cheese

Cauliflower – another vegetable I’m not exactly crazy about. Call it the lily-livered cousin of a broccoli….judging solely on its color that is.  In fact, this vegetable is from the same family, Brassicaceae, as the broccoli. Despite its lack of coloration, it is a vegetable packed with vitamins and minerals that are all good for you.

Here’s a rather common and simple way of enjoying cauliflower on the dinner table.  This is my own even simpler version of the recipe, minus the white sauce.

Cauliflower and Cheese

Microwave a pack of frozen cauliflower as directed on package. Sprinkle with salt and pepper and some grated cheese.  Consider a strongly-flavored cheese to contrast with the blandness of the cauliflower.  For starters try a sharp cheddar which is what I used in this particular recipe.

Put the cauliflower under the broiler for a few minutes, just enough to melt the cheese. Serve hot.
