Cauliflower With Cheese and Chips image

The cauliflower isn't "drowning" in the sauce. In fact, in autumn, when the cauliflower is very, very large, sometimes I increase the sauce/topping by 50% or even double it. Kids generally love it!

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 head cauliflower, broken into flowerets
1 tablespoon butter
1 1/4-1 1/2 cups skim milk
2 -3 tablespoons flour
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon white pepper
1/4 teaspoon paprika
1/4 finely crushed nacho cheese flavored tortilla chips
