We love this Creamy Cauliflower Casserole. It’s a great side dish for any gathering, holiday or week night dinner.
This cauliflower casserole is one of our favorite side dishes. I am not a big fan of cooked cauliflower and I love it “fixed” this way.
1 small head cauliflower, washed and broken into pieces 1 (10 3/4 ounce) can cream of celery soup, undiluted 1/4 to 1/2 cup green onion, chopped 1/2 cup milk 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour 2 tablespoons sesame seed, toasted 4 tablespoons slivered almonds, toasted 1/2 teaspoon black pepper 1 cup sharp cheddar cheese, divided Salt to taste Wash cauliflower and break into pieces. Place in a sprayed casserole with about 1/4 cup water, covered with saran wrap and cook in microwave for about 6 minutes. While cauliflower is cooking, place almonds and sesame seed on a baking sheet and bake in preheated 350 degree oven for 10 minutes. Remove cauliflower from microwave, drain and return to casserole. Combine remaining ingredients except for 1/2 cup cheese, almonds and sesame seeds and pour over cauliflower. Mix with spoon. Sprinkle remaining 1/2 cup cheese on top and sprinkle almonds and sesame seed over casserole. Bake in preheated 400 degree oven for 30 minutes. Makes 6 to 8 servings. Enjoy!

I made this last night. Delicious!!! Thanks so much for the recipe!
Sounds great. I use cauliflower to make low fat faux potato salad. Everybody loves it.
I will try this for church with a low salt soup. Its looks yummy. Do you have any low sodium recipe.
Will this work with corn starch in place of flour …Gluten free
Would this work for chopped cabbage?
I have not made it with cabbage but feel like it would work.
Do you have a recipe for pizza soup?? we had it yesterday for the first time , it is so good..if you do please post … thank you ..
I love cauli but am always at a loss with new ways to try it besides a side dish or on a salad. Definitely going to try this one!
This sounds really good. I don’t use seaseme seeds so I am going to try it without, maybe I will use something else for the crunch, 🙂
