Pretty good, but could use a little oomph. The Swiss I bought to make the casserole was halfway gone by the time I got around to making this dish, so I used Swiss in the casserole and Italian blend on top. Also sprinkled with bread crumbs and broiled for a minute or two at the end of the baking time. I did have to use more liquid for the sauce; very thick. This calls for 3-3-1 butter-flour-milk and I usually at least start with 1-1-1. Next time: use half potatoes and half cauliflower; add onions and celery; maybe mushrooms. This is a good base recipe for a veggie casserole and offers good instructions. Oh, and I managed to use one pan plus my steamer (plus the casserole dish, of course). Not that I'm lazy or anything...but honestly, this uses a lot of pans!

This came out really well. The only change I made was to use white cheddar cheese instead of swiss. Served it with pork steak. Next time I may just cube the steak and mix it into the casserole.

This was really tasty and quite filling but I think to make it more flavourful you should consider a few adjustments. What I did: sprinkled bread crumbs, cayenne pepper, garlic powder and rosemary on top and broiled for 2 min at the end to give it a crispy crust. Also, I used milk, not cream, and added about a 1/4 c. coconut milk to the sauce to increase the creaminess. Delicious!

This is just a basic Mornay sauce over vegetables. Simple and good as a side dish. There isn't any need to add anything else (not even salt), but if you wanted to kick up the flavours a bit, I would suggest adding a tsp of dijon mustard (or even yellow mustard) to kick up the cheese). 1/2 tsp of ground sage would also intensify the flavours.

This is a good recipe, but a little bland as is. I used milk instead of heavy cream, and added a little more for moisture. I think next time I will add nutmeg for flavor. Overall a good side dish though.

This recipe was great! Its really easy to prepare and a nice change from the same old sides! The only change I made was using milk instead of cream and chedder instead of swiss. I WILL be making this one again.

This was wonderful but a little plain. Might add bacon next time :)

Definitely need to parboil the cauliflower first. Casserole turned out quite tasty.

I tried this to use a head of cauliflower that I bought at the farmer's market, but I think there are better uses for my cauliflower. It was just OK. It needed something else, more flavor. I guess you could modify it somehow, but I'm not impressed enough to give it another shot.
