"This is my family's favorite way to prepare cauliflower! The creamy cheese sauce adds great flavor to this vegetable. Cheddar cheese can also be substituted in place of the Swiss. Kids even like this dish! Easy, with minimal ingredients."

DIRECTIONS
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease a small baking dish.
Place the cauliflower in a saucepan with enough water to cover. Bring to a boil and cook 5 minutes, or until tender but crisp.
In a separate saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat and gradually mix in the flour, salt, and milk. Bring to a boil, remove from heat, and mix in the Swiss cheese until melted. Spread about 1/4 cup of the melted Swiss cheese mixture in the bottom of the prepared baking dish. Place the cauliflower in the dish, and top with the remaining cheese mixture.
Bake uncovered 20 to 25 minutes in the preheated oven, until bubbly.

If it's too bland, throw some dry mustard in with the flour at the beginning and sprinkle some paprika on top after baking. My kids ate this, so it automatically gets a higer mark from me.

I too must agree that the sauce alone was a bit bland. Don't know what the first reviewer meant about the dish not needing the milk and flour. That's how you start any cheese sauce. Anyway, I added garlic and onion powders and black pepper and it was still rather uninteresting so I thought about what it is that makes fondue so tasty. In my opinion it's the wine. With that addition it turned out nicely. Thanks Brenda for a good start!

Very good. Probably made twice as much sauce as was actually needed. I read the idea about dry mustard & paprika after the fact - I'm sure that would've really made it pop!

I made this to take to a cookout and it was great without any changes. I'm also adding this recipe to my holiday dinner this year as well. Thanks for sharing!

Pretty good, made a LOT of sauce, but I didn't mind - I served this with fresh snow peas and the sauce was great on the peas. I might even add snow peas to this recipe next time. I did add a bit of mustard to the sauce - adds a nice flavor.

I found this to be very bland and I even added diced onions, Worcestershire sauce and mustard! It didn't seem to need the flour and milk as this took away from the cheesiness. Sorry, this one is just not a keeper.

This was good. I added some breadcumbs & additional cheese on top of the dish. It was slightly bland but it complimented the spicy lamb cutlets I made very well.

I love cauliflower and when it is hot and covered with cheese - even better! I used 2 heads of cauliflower. For the sauce, I used about 2 tbsp. of olive oil inplace of the butter. I added chicken soup mix, onion powder and garlic powder to the sauce. Too bad I did not read the other reviews - but next time i will probably add mustard or mustard powder to give it a bit of a kick. I added shredded mozzerela cheese the last 2 minutes of baking time, so that the cheese would not burn.
