Do people actually make cauliflower cheese?

[Twiglett]

no seriously

do you?

and why

yes because it's delicious and particularly good with roast potatoes

Yes, it's easy, it's yummy and DS2 eats it (he's not too good with veg).

I love it!

We always have it if I cook a ham. We have mashed potatoes, cooked ham, peas and cauliflower cheese. Superb!

One of the only ways I eat cauliflower. Alo Gobi being one and mashed cauliflower being the other (instead of mashed potatoes when I was doing Atkins - yummy).

Also do brocolli cheese here.

Some of the ideas for additions to the basic cauliflower dish sound good too - may try some this week.

me too.
i also use the same sauce recipe for macaroni cheese.

and all the fun trumps later

Oh well, over my head flamesparrow...

I miss all the exciting bits!

round of applause (or should that be seconds...?) for twiglett, hilarious thread and funny jokes through-out! Are you convinced yet?? Cauli-cheese is gooood!!

ooh yes

I love it

I make it with bacon and tomatoes for a nice winter supper

I love cauliflower cheese

but the best way to cook cauliflower is in a cauli and potato curry thing that dh makes - quite dry, no sauce but lots of cumin and other spices I can't remember, lovely.

Yes I get cauli in my organci veg box and its the only way it's edible

I do! I also add peanut butter to the sauce sometimes, it's delicious.

we do cauliflower, brocoli and carrots in a cheese sauce - then its vegetables au gratin darhling

Also dd1 - no broc
ds1 no cauliflower
ds2 only broc
dd2 - eats it all!!!!

this was one of my fav dishes as a child, still ove it

I lurrrrve cauli cheese. That breastmilk soap thread is a CLASSIC

I don't love it but we sometimes make it. Dd quite likes it and doesn't ordinarily touch cheese

We make it loads cos we love it - especially alongside some baked salmon. I add a teaspoon of French mustard to the sauce & pumpkin & breadcrumbs seeds on the top. Oh yummy!

gosh we have cauliflower cheese lots, is it really that odd?

Think a lot depends on the cheese you use. I crumble in stilton which I like the taste of. Cauliflower can be bland with all the taste boiled out of it and cheese sauce can be bland too. It can all end up limp and watery and so I understand it isn't everyone's favourite food. I steam the cauliflower and I think the sauce has a bit of flavour but I wouldn't eat it day in day out.

We have it once a fortnight (but it's 1/2 broccoli), with roast potatoes (not Aunt Bessies!). I put mustard in the cheese sauce, too.
kama - give it a try, my 7 month old ds loves it,

Do people actually eat twiglets?

Now I know I'm setting myself up to be called a ponce, but have you tried it with the cheese sauce made with goat's milk, all you caulifolower chese lovers.

We had to go dairy free with DD when she was small (eczema) and gradually introduced goat's milk, which she seemed to be able to tolerate. CC made with goats milk and goats' milk cheese is very nice indeed. For some reason the goatiness goes quite well with cauliflower.
