Great recipe.<br/><br/>My mods to suit my tastes - add 2 teaspoons worcestershire and 1 tablespoon dijon. One whole onion instead of the peppers. Almond meal instead of ritz and breadcrumbs. Add 1 cup frozen peas. I omit the butter, no need for it.<br/><br/>I tried adding a chopped up zucchini once but that made it too watery. -
THIS WAS DELICIOUS!! the best casserole I've made in awhile even. Only thing different that I did was I boiled the cauliflower in chicken broth that I had lefted over from the other day. I also used the Garlic and Herb breadcrumbs since this was what I had on hand. Turned out GREAT! I went back for seconds even LOL This recipe will be put into my favorite recipes file :) Thanks for sharing the recipe! -
Yummy way to enjoy cauliflower! he peppers give the white veggie some extra color. I only had green peppers, so mine wasn't quite as colorful as if made with the red and green peppers. Considering he red and green peppers, this would be a cute side dish fo Christmas dinner. Thanx! -
This was very very good. It was relatively easy to make and good way to get veggies into the kiddies. Tasted great! Used twice the amount of breadcrumbs though as I love them!

<p>Born & raised in Northern NJ and now live in the NJ suburbs of New York City. <br /><br />I grew up on all the traditional Italian meals from my Grandmother's kitchen. Holiday's were parades of food of all kinds, from main dishes to desserts, but mostly I remember Gram's traditional Italian dishes around the Holiday's surrounded by all of our family. <br /><br />I love to cook everything now. I find it great to experiment & try new recipes. Most of all, I love to entertain & host dinners with family, friends & have Holidays at home with my terrific husband & our four legged furry goofball bulldog! <br /><br />===================================== <br /><br />Spring 2008: I was picked for the Pick-A-Chef Spring 2008 Contest by a wonderful chef: Chef #166642 who made my Recipe #293174 and my Recipe #285517 and lastly, my Recipe #287338 <br /><br />The link to the cookbook from that contest is: http://www.recipezaar.com/cookbook.php?bookid=199542 <br /><br /><img src=http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/adoptedspring08.jpg border=0 alt=Photobucket /> <br /><br />===================================== <br /><br />July 2008: I was just Z-mailed that I was picked for My 3 Chefs 2008 Cooking Contest by: Chef #829183 who made my: Recipe #307814 <br /><br />She Z-mailed me the link to the cookbook from that contest: http://www.recipezaar.com/cookbook.php?bookid=213150 <br /><br /><img src=http://i16.photobucket.com/albums/b2/kiwidutch/My-3-Chefs%20banners/my3chefs2008Small.jpg border=0 alt=Photobucket /> <br /><br /><img src=http://i10.photobucket.com/albums/a132/tgifford/Game%20Room%20Banners/AM%20Banners/potluckpbanner.jpg border=0 alt=Photobucket /> <br /><br /><br />=====================================</p>
