Personally, I would try a blend of different cheeses. While I do like cheddar, too much cheddar tends to have quite the oil development (BLEH!)... I like a good blend of parmesan, fontina, provolone and aged asiago... mmmmmmmm
That recipe looks AWESOME.. I mean hell - its got bacon!0 -
Never made it,but I think I will try it. It sounds delicious !!0

I made a variation of this that had chopped pickles and no cauliflower or egg. I really like it, the boyfriend just thought it was just ok.
I also mixed a little yellow mustard into the meat to give it some tang.0 -
totally trying this, thank you!
and thank you so much for always including the nutritional info0 -
Sounds yummy!0

I will try this. I have made a similar one with potatoes for years, never have thought about swapping for cauliflower.0

I think I'll try both versions - they both sound yummy. Kinda a low carb cheesy shepherd's pie0 -

Exactly what I was thinking. Throw in some more veggies, put the cauliflower on top and Bob's your uncle.
Just the thing for the coming cold winter nights. 0 -
This sounds super yum! May need to try this out tonight!!0

I might make this in individual serving dishes to freeze. Would be a great warm lunch! Definitely going to add mustard and pickles though!0
