Jamie Oliver's Macaroni and Cauliflower Cheese Bake

[Catlady]

I've never made it, but watched him on TV making it. I'll give it a try, it's healthier than regular mac and cheese (which I love, with real sharp cheddar). Has anybody made it? Comments.

I make that lots but then I've been making since before Jaimie was born , except I use broccoli instead of cauliflower and I leave out the cream and or creme fraiche and add breadcrumbs and parmesan and sometimes bacon lardons to the top before grilling ( broiling)...

Oh both sound great. I've made broccoli au gratin and baked mac and cheese but never together or with cauli. Sounds wonderful!

I like broccoli better than cauliflower, but I'd like to eat more varied veggies, so will try the cauli first. I did make cauli fritters once and was surprised how good they were.

Cauliflower is albino broccoli, or ghost broccoli. Blanched and bland, IMO.
