Cheesy Fancy Cauliflower Bake

Ingredients

• 1 head cauliflower
• 1/2 cup Miracle Whip
• 1 1/2 cups milk
• 1 cup cheddar cheese, shredded
• 1/8 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon pepper
• 18 saltines
• 1/4 cup margarine
• 1/4 teaspoon mustard

Directions

1. 1

   Prepare the cauliflower by steaming it for about 10 minutes until it's slightly tender, but not squashy. You can either cut it into pieces or leave it whole as you desire. Whole makes a dramatic presentation, cut is good for easy serving.

2. 2

   While the cauliflower is cooking, crush the crackers and put into a bowl with the softened margarine. Stir with a fork until it all goes together and the crackers are coated, set aside.

3. 3

   In a medium saucepan, bring the miracle whip, salt, pepper, mustard,and milk to a boil over medium heat, stirring with a wire whisk. Boil for one minute, then add the cheese. Stir until the cheese is melted and the sauce is smooth.

4. 4

   Put the cauliflower in a 9x13 baking dish, pour the cheese sauce over the top.

5. 5

   Sprinkle the cracker/butter mixture over the top, and then place the pan in the oven broiler for a few minutes until the topping is browned. Do not step away from the oven because this browns very quickly!
