Mock Mac & Cheese

I have fallen in love with this recipe ever since I found it on a diabetic recipe website. It is so full of flavor and it is so good for you, it makes having second helpings feel much less guilty. I do not understand why it is titled the way it is since it tastes nothing like mac & cheese, but I just go with it anyway.

Mock Mac & Cheese

Ingredients:

1 head of cauliflower
1 Tbls. yellow mustard (the kind you put on a burger, not the powder.)
3 Tbls. Low fat or Fat Free Mayo (I prefer Best Foods low fat mayo)
2-4 Tbls. Margarine (optional)
Grated or Shredded Parmesan Cheese

Clean cauliflower and peel off leaves. Boil for approx. 20 -25 min. You do not want it to over cook it as it will fall apart. Remove from pot and sit on a plate covered in several sheets of paper towels to absorb left over water. Let sit till it is completely drained then place in a suffl'e dish. (I use a deep casserole dish and it works just fine.) Take margarine and push down into the head of cauliflower, top and sides to add moisture and to allow sauce to penetrate. Mix mayo and mustard together and pour it over cauliflower, making sure to cover the entire head. Keep most of the sauce on top and it will run down the side while cooking. Sprinkle generously with Parmesan cheese and cook in oven @ 350 degrees until top is golden brown. Apprx. 25 min.

You can adjust the sauce to the amount of cauliflower by adding mayo and mustard to acheive desired quantity and taste. Serve as a side dish to anything.
