Smoky Cauliflower and Sausage

[Andy M.]

Smoky Cauliflower and Sausage​

1 Lb Cauliflower, 1 small head
½ Lb Sweet Italian Sausage
8 Oz Cream Cheese, softened
TT Salt and Pepper
4 Oz Smoked Gouda, thinly sliced

Preheat the oven to 350 ° F.

Cut the cauliflower into florets and steam until tender. Mash with a potato masher, leaving small pieces for texture.

Remove the casings from the sausage, or use bulk, and cook in a fry pan breaking it into small pieces. Remove to paper towels.

Combine the cooked cauliflower, sausage and cream cheese in a bowl and season to taste.

Spread half the mixture in a 9”x9” (2-quart) baking dish or casserole.

Distribute half the cheese slices over the top.

Spread the remaining mixture on top followed by the remaining cheese slices.

Bake for 25-35 minutes until bubbling.

Wait a sec! *doing the bulletin board equivalent of a double-take* A cauliflower recipe from AM? There are only two conclusions...

It must be really, really delicious for Andy to put up with the cauliflower. Or, it's a warped recipe for a warped palate for this delicious vegetable.

As I explained in another thread, SO was on a low carb kick and found this recipe for me to make. It's good because you can't taste the cauliflower. You can use other vegetables. If I was to make it for myself, I would use broccoli.

He used ground styrofoam.

He used ground styrofoam.

I thought that was his secret ingredient

When we get a package in the mail that's packed with 'peanuts', we eat cheap for a week!

Sounds very good and I would use broccoli, that I can eat.
