Cauliflower Mac And Cheese Recipe

Recipe By The Spruce Eats

Mac and cheese is classic comfort food that's loved by kids and adults alike. But if you're looking to cut back on your carbs or follow a gluten-free or keto diet, then it's not usually an option. Thanks to a simple ingredient swap using versatile cauliflower, this drool-worthy cauliflower mac and cheese is diet-friendly while still satisfying the same cheesy, melty craving. Tender-crisp roasted cauliflower is coated in a simple cheese sauce of cheddar, cream cheese, milk, and spices. Dijon mustard adds a nice kick of flavor without overwhelming the dish. Topped with a sprinkling of parmesan and baked, it comes out bubbling and lightly browned on top. Broil it for a minute or two if you like the top extra toasty. If you're not eating gluten-free or keto, you can add a topping of melted butter and breadcrumbs for an extra crunch.
