Ingredients

16 oz bag of cauliflower, thawed
3 Tbsp stick margarine
1 1/2 lb boneless, skinless chicken breast, cut into bite-size pieces
1 Tbsp chicken seasoning
CHEESE SAUCE
2 1/2 tsp stick margarine
2 1/2 tsp all-purpose flour
2 c shredded sharp cheddar cheese, divided
1 1/4 c 2% milk, can use regular milk
1/2 tsp pepper or to taste
1/4 tsp salt

Steps:

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
2. In a skillet, large enough to hold the chicken, melt margarine over medium heat.
3. Add chicken and sprinkle with chicken seasoning; stirring well to coat. Cook until no longer pink and slightly browned. Set aside.
4. To make the Cheese Sauce: In a medium-sized saucepan, melt margarine over medium/low heat.
5. Add flour and cook until lightly browned. Stir in milk, a little at a time, until slightly thickened.
6. Stir 1 1/2 cups cheese into milk. To get the desired thickness or thinness, you might want to add a bit more milk. Add salt and pepper to taste.
7. In a large bowl, add cauliflower, chicken, and cheese sauce. Then pour into a greased 2-quart pan.
8. Sprinkle with remaining cheese. Bake at 350 degrees for 35 minutes.
