The cauliflower was overcooked and mushy and the cheese sauce barely tasted like cheese. This is another recipe i won't try again.
good

Great side dish for the pork roast. I will never buy frozen cauliflower with cheese sauce again! This is as easy almost and so much better.
Tasted Very Artificial

Plus it had a weird shiny look to it -- like plastic food.
No thanks

The canned soup, tons of cheese and salt really cancel out any nutrients that may have been in that frozen bag of cauli -- not that frozen vegetables are all that great anyway. This was disgusting and not real cooking. Lay off the sauce S.L.

I am always looking for a way to get my kids to eat more vegies. Anything with cheese has their vote.
Really bland and tasteless

Sorry but I'd never make this again. It was bland and mushy and unappetizing.
A little bland.

Loved how simple it was to make, but had to add alot of salt and pepper for taste. Next time I'll use more real cheese and less condensed cheese soup.
Mushy

Between the frozen cauliflower and the sauce this was just very soft and mushy. I like the idea but will try it with fresh cauliflower and less soup the next time. If you have a little more time, Ina Garten's cauliflower gratin is excellent.
easy

It was very easy and fast. The taste was good enough considering how little effort it took to make.
Don't use the cheese sauce!

This recipe is okay if you make a few improvements. The first time I made it, it just tasted like hot babyfood mush, but my kids liked it. So I made it again, but only used 1/2 of the cheese soup, added more real shredded cheese (cheddar instead of mexican mix), and used real cauliflower (boil for about 5 minutes or steam). These changes made a world of difference, so now I consider it edible!
Pretty good

This is fast and easy. Not as flavor filled as I thought, but a good side dish to whip up in a hurry.
Best cauliflower gratin

I used a mix with both cauliflower and broccoli. I also added some bacon bits since I had them, and that made it excellent. The topping was great.. It was really delicious.
The cheese sauce was disgusting

The soup made the sauce taste like a can. It was nasty and disgusting.

I actually substituted broccoli for the cauliflower and everybody loved it. I'm also thinking about doing a combination of both. The great thing though is the crispy topping that I can use in a lot of other recipes too!
A little spicy

I may have done it wrong but it was a little to spicy. Next time I'll put a little less spice in it. Also had to substitute broccali (father-in-law allergic to callieflower) but still turned out good. It was a hit.
Plastic Texture

We did not enjoy the plastic texture of the sauce. It was not very cheesy.
very good!

This was very tasty! First, I used a 16oz bag of frozen broccoli since I didn't have any cauliflower on hand (she said on the show that broccoli would be good too). I kept the recipe the same. The only change I made was to use HALF a can of the soup (as some had previously mentioned) and I used plain bread crumbs. It turned out perfect! Only change I would make next time would be to use less cayenne pepper. It had a bit of a kick to it! (My family is not a huge fan of spicy stuff) Give it a try...super easy and tasty!
So Good!

This was very good. i used broccoli instead because my husband isn't a fan of califlower. I also used mozzerella shredded cheese because i didn't have any mexican cheese available and it turned out fabulous. very good
Just didn't work

If I don't like something that's supposed to be "cheesy," something is wrong. The flavors just didn't work. The cheddar cheese soup is the problem in this recipe.

My kids actually like cauliflower but they refused to eat this. They said the sauce was "icky." Personally, I agree with them. I won't make it again.

Did Not Taste Cheesy

This was disappointing because it really didn't taste like cheese. The cheese soup is creamy and all but doesn't taste like real cheese. Tasted artificial.
Horrible

Metallic and artificial tasting. Very salty. This was simply awful!
Yummy!

I made a few adjustments to this recipe and we loved it. I thinned the soup with a little milk. About three quarters of a can and I doubled the cauliflower as I have a large family. I did not add the spices suggested in the recipe instead I added just a pinch of nutmeg. I also only used swiss cheese instead of the blend as that is what I had on hand. Made the topping just as written and this was one yummy side dish. If you just thin out the soup before adding it to the cauliflower it won't be lumpy. Also one whole can for just a small amout of cauliflower is just a bit too much in my opinion. It was perfect for a double portion of the veggie though.
Delicious

My family loved this recipe just omit the salt the condesed soup is salty enough I used Panko (Japanese Bread Crumbs) for a great crunchy topping it's a keeper. Much better than Green Giant's Calliflower @ cheese sauce.
all right

it was very cheesy and yummy but it got cold really quick. Maybe just because i didn't broil it long enough.
Extremely Unappetizing

The soup and the cheese made a thin, clumpy sauce that was salty and unappetizing.
YUM

Loved this recipe! I used fresh cauliflower instead of frozen (didn't have frozen at my store) It turned out GREAT! My hubby even loved it and he's not a veggie guy. We'll make this again and again!
Curdled a little

I loved this recipe. Nice and cheesy with a nice touch of heat. I did take liberty with this though and instead of microwaving the cauliflower I thawed it under running hot water. I put all ingrediants in a casserole dish & baked until bubbly, then added the topping and baked again till golden brown. This was really good with inch thick pork chops I'd broiled. Yummy I'll make this again!
Awesome

This recipe was super simple and tasted great. Make sure you start with frozen cauliflower. I cooked some fresh cauliflower the night before and then used it the next day in the recipe and it was too watery. I am going to try the same recipe with broccoli. (I think my three year old prefers the green.)
