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.

Cheddar cheese can also be substituted in place of the Swiss.Update: 12/26/2008 when we made this again we used a few extra ingredients - nutmeg, crushed red pepper flakes & instead of garlic powder I had some left over roasted garlic and we added that as well, it added that exra zing that I thought it needed!l ;)
