  1. Since I only had a 16 ounce bag of frozen cauliflower this is how I made it.I partially thawed out cauliflower in the microwave and continued with using half of the rest of the ingredients.(Except I used 6 slices of bacon,I love bacon :))This recipe was so creamy,and cheesy,and it went very well with Recipe#77689.This will be made again,Thank you so much for posting."Keep Smiling:)"
     
  2. By the time you crisp the bacon and boil the water for the cauliflower it's going to take lots longer than 45 minutes. Also, it doesn't hurt to use milk instead of heavy cream. You're just trying to thin the cheese mixture. Finally, I was short cauliflower and used some broccoli I had in the fridge. Didn't work out since it cooks faster than cauliflower so I had to scoop it out of the boiling water while the cauliflower continued to cook.
     
  3. I made it last night, and it is very good. I will make it again.
     
  4. Really good. I didn't make any changes to the recipe. I made this for a potluck and came back with an empty dish.
     
  5. Made this last night. Family loved it and had seconds. Next time I will double the cream cheese sauce and maybe add a couple of diced scallions. This is a keeper in our house. Thanks for the recipe. Lissa
