Cheddar Cheese-Stuffed Cauliflower image

Provided by Giada De Laurentiis

Categories     side-dish

Time 40m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

Kosher salt
1 head cauliflower (about 2 pounds)
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/3 cup panko breadcrumbs
1/4 cup freshly grated Parmesan
1 tablespoon chopped fresh basil
One 8-ounce block white Cheddar cheese, cut into 1/2-inch logs (about 20 pieces)

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  • Bring a large pot of water to a boil over high heat. Sprinkle generously with salt. Trim the base of the cauliflower so the stem is flat to the head but without cutting off any florets. Blanch the cauliflower until just beginning to soften, 8 to 10 minutes. Remove to a plate to cool slightly.
  • In a small skillet, heat the butter until melted. Add the breadcrumbs and 1/2 teaspoon salt and toast until golden brown, about 3 minutes. Set aside to cool completely. Stir in the Parmesan and basil.
  • Gently begin to create space in between the florets and stuff each space with a log of Cheddar. Continue until all the pieces of cheese are used. Press the toasted breadcrumbs on top of the cauliflower. Place in a small baking dish and bake until the cauliflower is tender all the way through and the breadcrumbs are golden, about 20 minutes.

CAULIFLOWER WITH CHEESE SAUCE



Cauliflower with Cheese Sauce image

This is an easy recipe for cauliflower cheese but it's pretty versatile. You can use the cheese sauce with any vegetables you have handy. I often put a layer of cooked kale or broccoli on the bottom, then arrange the cooked cauliflower florets on top. You can change the flavor of the sauce by adding different cheeses you might have in your fridge. It takes a bit of elbow work to make the sauce but it's worth it. This is delicious served with roast beef or lamb.

Time 48m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 head cauliflower, broken into florets
¼ cup butter
¼ cup all-purpose flour
1 ¾ cups 1% milk
2 ounces Parmesan cheese, grated
salt and ground black pepper to taste
2 ounces mature Cheddar cheese, grated

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
  • Place cauliflower in a large pot and pour in enough water to cover; bring to a boil and cook until tender yet firm to the bite, 8 to 10 minutes. Drain and transfer to a baking dish.
  • Melt butter in a small saucepan over low heat. Add flour and mix using a whisk or wooden spoon until smooth and mixture pulls away from the side of the saucepan, 2 to 3 minutes. Pour in milk, a little at a time, and whisk continuously until sauce is thickened but still pourable, 3 to 4 minutes.
  • Stir Parmesan cheese into sauce until melted; season with salt and pepper. Pour sauce over all of the cauliflower. Sprinkle Cheddar cheese over the top.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until cheese is golden brown, 20 to 25 minutes.

WHIPPED CAULIFLOWER, LOW-CARB



Whipped Cauliflower, Low-Carb image

Finally mastered this dish after about a dozen tries! Great low-carb side dish to replace mashed potatoes. Like I said above, I have made this at least a dozen times and feel I have perfected it! Fool around with it some, but I have found these ingredients, cutting as much stem off, and squeezing all the water out really make this delicious! You can add a splash of milk to make it even creamier.
