Cauliflower Snack Hack that's not a Cookie

Here's an an easy cheesy cauliflower recipe that makes a great side dish or a tasty treat between meals. A tasty treat with cauliflower? Yep, seriously. It's saucy and cheesy and will satisfy your need for something decadent in the middle of the day. It's not as healthy and low calorie as plain old steamed cauliflower, but you'll actually eat this dish again and again, and it's certainly a healthier choice than a sleeve of chocolate chip cookies. We used a microwave because that's the ultimate in convenience since you can cook and eat using the same dishware, but you can just as easily steam the cauliflower on the stove top.

What You Need To Make Easy Cheesy Cauliflower
CAULIFLOWER (florets, stems, the whole thing...whatever your taste buds prefer
CHEESE ...freshly grated, and whatever cheese you like, but cheddary is nice
MUSTARD ...fancy mustard!...definitely don't use yellow mustard, unless you're a savage
MAYONNAISE
SALT and PEPPER to taste

Also add additional spices and herbs if you like...make it as complicated or simple as you like.
I like this dish for it's simplicity, and because it's a tasty snack that keeps me from making a nutritionally
inferior choice, but you can definitely jazz the recipe up. Add fresh dill and minced garlic to the sauce, or garlic
and onion powder, or dried Italian seasonings; make the dish as simple or complicated as you like.

How to Make Microwave Cheesy Cauliflower

You can microwave an entire head of cauliflower in a bowl, but I like to break the cauliflower into smaller bowls
for a tiny cauliflower treat. Use the stems and florets and cook accordingly. The more stem you use, the longer the cooking time.
Add a splash of water to the bowl and microwave of high heat to desired doneness.
While the cauliflower cooks, in a bowl mix the sauce of mustard, mayonnaise, salt, and pepper. Adjust ratios to taste.
Once the cauliflower has cooked to desired doneness, spoon and spread the sauce over the cauliflower.
Top with freshly grated cheese.
Microwave another minute to melt the cheese.

And that's it.
Serve this simple microwave cauliflower cheese as a side dish, or eat it right out of the bowl for a cheesy cauliflower treat. Believe me, it's a treat.
Is it ice cream? No. But it's goooood, you'll actually love it, and be satisfied, and you won't feel as bad when you're finished.
