Massive leftover cauliflower cheese

I fricking love cauli cheese, but even I outdid myself this year and we have a HUGE amount of it leftover.

WIBU to make it into a soup? I don't even know how to do it 🤣!

Any other recommendations? This was massive cauliflower, and the sauce is made with a proper roux and a shed load of strong cheddar and mustard.

Freezing it isn't ideal as we restart fat club (slimming world) next week. This week, we feast!

I saw on TV someone who made a massive leftovers pie using blitzed up cauliflower cheese as the sauce around the shredded sprouts, leeks, turkey and ham. They served it with roast parsnips carrots and pigs in blankets.

I have 3 teenagers in the house so I don't understand this 'leftovers' thing everyone speaks of Xmas Grin

OMG Stormy that pie sounds lush. All other leftovers are gone though 🤣

@jackiebenimble

Makes a great soup.

Fry off some leeks or onion and potato (potato thickens any soup base) then add vegetable stock and cook until pots are soft. Then add your cauli cheese in and warm through. Blitz with stick blender. Add in more stock depending on if you prefer a thinner or thicker soup. Season to taste.

Add on any other veg or meat you have left over too.

I am trying this now 👍🏻🤣

Grilled cauliflower cheese sandwich. Particularly delicious when using thick slices of sour dough bread and fried (not grilled) in butter on both sides.
