    Reading other reviews I reduced the amount of peas to 1 cup. Otherwise, this is another great recipe. The flavor was all there for me. The only thing I would change next time I make it is I would cover it with foil as it bakes. This will keep it more moist.

    Awesome light version of mac and cheese. I love cauliflower and peas, so this was a likeable combination for me. Besides slightly increasing the milk, the only other change I made was to eliminate the egg whites. Don't care for them and didn't see the need. And for anyone who doesn't like peas, leave them out for heaven's sakes. Not rocket science. This was a tasty dish and was yummy heating leftovers in the microwave.

    Loved this healthy version of mac and cheese. The only difference that I did was cooked and pureed the cauliflower. It's a great way to hide the veg. from the kids.

    I didn't like this at all. The cauliflower and peas stayed too crunchy despite extra time in the oven and it wasn't cheesy at all. I'll continue my search for a healthy mac and cheese. Noone enjoyed this one at my house.

    very good! I did use 1 cup of milk because of the dry review and it turned out perfect. I also left out the peas and added some andouille sausage. YUM

    This is really good. I used unsweetened almond milk, 1.5 cups of super copped cauliflower and added a can of stewed tomatos. For other Weight Watchers, that's 5 servings at 10 points (w/full fat cheese. Agreed, you can lessen the peas or substitute w/spinach or brocalli for fewer points. BUT, the peas add a sweetness. And if you plan the rest of your day accordingly...this is a surprising, filling meal and the flavor profile is much better than the ordinary.

    Thanks Bobby!

    I followed this recipe to a "T"...the only thing I changed was I used 2% milk in place of the skim milk. This recipe is on the dry side.....and 16 oz. of peas is A LOT of peas. I used a 14 oz. bag and had A TON of peas.....and that's a lot of added carbs. I would use 2 c. of the chopped cauliflower next time and maybe a little more red. fat sour cream in order to make it a bit more "wet"....and possibly sub out a different green veg. to lower the carb. count- like sliced asparagus or green beans.
