Easy Elegant Cauliflower For People Who Hate Cauliflower

I have never liked cauliflower unless it was drowning in processed cheese sauce - and even then i didn't like it much). However...i found this kraft recipe and it's so easy, pretty and - yes - tasty! My kids scarfed it down! make sure to double the sauce/cheese portion. The bright orange of the cheddar cheese creates a very nice presentation for company and holidays. The ratio of mayo-to-mustard is a suggestion, so start with the mayo and add a little of the dijon, mix and taste until it tastes the way you prefer. And you can sub yellow mustard if your kids like it better. Whatever gets them to eat cauliflower!!

Steps

Cut cauliflower into 8 to 12 large floret pieces , discarding the core.
Place florets in microwaveable casserole dish.
Add the water.
Cover.
Microwave on high for 10 minutes.
Drain.
Return cauliflower to same dish.
Hint: cook cauliflower evenly by placing the larger pieces to the outside of the dish.
Mix the mayo and mustard.
Spread over the cauliflower.
Sprinkle with the cheese.
Microwave on high 1 to 2 minutes or until the cheese is melted.
