Description

A simple recipe for a grilled cheese sandwich featuring cooked cauliflower.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 slices bread
  • 1/2 cup cooked cauliflower florets, chopped
  • 2 slices cheese (cheddar or preferred type)
  • 1 tablespoon butter

Instructions

  1. Lightly mash the cooked cauliflower florets in a small bowl.
  2. Butter one side of each slice of bread.
  3. Place one slice of bread, butter-side down, in a skillet over medium heat.
  4. Layer one slice of cheese, the mashed cauliflower, and the second slice of cheese on the bread in the skillet.
  5. Top with the second slice of bread, butter-side up.
  6. Grill for 3 to 4 minutes per side, pressing gently with a spatula, until the bread is golden brown and the cheese is melted.
  7. Remove from the skillet and slice in half.

Notes

  • Cook the cauliflower until tender before starting the sandwich assembly.
  • Use firm, mild cheese for best melting results.
