CHEESY CAULIFLOWER CASSEROLE RECIPE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees and generously butter an 8" square casserole dish.
• Bring water to boil in a large pot over high heat and cook cauliflower for 6 minutes. Remove from heat, strain then place in a casserole dish.
• Sauté onion and garlic in butter over medium heat until onion is translucent, about 2 minutes. Add flour, whisk to combine then cook for 1 minute. Slowly whisk in milk until flour is dissolved. Stir in cheeses until melted. Turn off heat and season with salt and pepper to taste.
• Pour cheese sauce over cauliflower then bake 20-25 minutes or until hot and bubbly. Cool for at least 5 minutes before serving.

EASY CHEESY LOADED CAULIFLOWER CASSEROLE RECIPE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F (232 degrees C).
• In a large bowl, toss the cauliflower florets with butter. Season with sea salt and black pepper.
• Transfer the cauliflower to a small 1.5 quart (1.4 L) casserole dish in a single layer. (Line the pan unless it's glass or stoneware. If there's too much cauliflower to fit in a single layer, roast on a larger baking sheet instead.) Roast in the oven for 15-20 minutes, until crisp-tender.
• Meanwhile, in the same bowl, whisk together the sour cream and heavy cream, until smooth. Stir in the minced garlic, half of the cheddar cheese, half of the bacon bits, and half of the green onions. If desired, season sauce with sea salt and black pepper. (Don't oversalt - it will get more salty as the cheese melts later.)
• When the cauliflower is done roasting, take it out and leave the oven on. Add the cauliflower to the bowl and mix with the sauce.
• Return the cauliflower mixture to the casserole dish. Top with remaining cheese and bacon bits.
• Bake for 5-10 minutes, until the cheese melts. Top with remaining green onions.

COUSCOUS WITH TOMATOES, CAULIFLOWER, RED PEPPERS AND OLIVES

Steps:

• Heat 1 tablespoon of the olive oil in a large, heavy soup pot or Dutch oven over medium heat and add the onion. Cook, stirring, until it is tender, about 5 minutes, and stir in the garlic, 1/2 teaspoon salt and the spices. Stir together for about 30 seconds, until the mixture is fragrant, and add the tomatoes. Cook, stirring often, until the tomatoes have cooked down slightly, 5 to 10 minutes. Stir in the beans, 2 quarts water and the bouquet garni. Bring to a gentle boil, reduce the heat, cover and simmer 1 1/2 hours.
• Add the tomato paste, harissa, red bell pepper, cauliflower, olives and salt to taste. Bring back to a simmer and simmer 30 minutes, or until the beans are tender. Stir in the chopped fresh herbs and simmer another 5 minutes. Taste and adjust salt. Remove a cup of the broth for seasoning the couscous. The stew should be spicy and flavorful.
• Reconstitute and steam the couscous [ed: please link]. Serve the couscous in wide bowls or mound onto plates and top with the stew. Pass more harissa at the table.
