Steps:

  • Thoroughly combine the cream cheese, Worcestershire, lemon zest, 3 cups Cheddar and 1 teaspoon salt in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, scraping down the sides with a rubber spatula as needed. Transfer to a bowl, then cover with plastic wrap and chill in the refrigerator until firm, about 30 minutes.
  • Roll the cheese mixture into three balls to form the base, body and head of the snowman. (They should be just over 4-, 3-, and 2-inches in diameter.) Roll the balls in the remaining 2 cups Cheddar to create a snowy exterior. Insert a 6- to 8-inch wooden skewer vertically into the largest ball; use it to attach the body and then the head of the snowman.
  • Cut an inch off the tapered tip of the carrot and use it for the snowman's nose. Insert the asparagus spears into the body for arms. Use two olive halves for eyes, and the remaining four for buttons. Wrap the thinly shaved cucumber or celery around his neck to form a scarf.
  • Serve the snowman on a platter surrounded by crackers.

One 8-ounce block cream cheese, at room temperature
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 1/2 teaspoons grated lemon zest (from 1 lemon)
5 cups shredded white Cheddar (1 pound)
Fine salt 1 small carrot
2 asparagus spears, blanched
3 black olives, sliced in half
One 12-inch strip English cucumber or one 12-inch piece celery shaved thinly with a vegetable peeler
Crackers, for serving

Cauliflower Gratin image

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
  • Cook the cauliflower florets in a large pot of boiling salted water for 5 to 6 minutes, until tender but still firm. Drain.
  • Meanwhile, melt 2 tablespoons of the butter in a medium saucepan over low heat. Add the flour, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon for 2 minutes. Pour the hot milk into the butter-flour mixture and stir until it comes to a boil. Boil, whisking constantly, for 1 minute, or until thickened. Off the heat, add 1 teaspoon of salt, the pepper, nutmeg, 1/2 cup of the Gruyere, and the Parmesan.
  • Pour 1/3 of the sauce on the bottom of an 8 by 11 by 2-inch baking dish. Place the drained cauliflower on top and then spread the rest of the sauce evenly on top. Combine the bread crumbs with the remaining 1/4 cup of Gruyere and sprinkle on top. Melt the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter and drizzle over the gratin. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, until the top is browned. Serve hot or at room temperature.

1 (3-pound) head cauliflower, cut into large florets
Kosher salt
4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) unsalted butter, divided
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 cups hot milk
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/4 teaspoon grated nutmeg
3/4 cup freshly grated Gruyere, divided
1/2 cup freshly grated Parmesan
1/4 cup fresh bread crumbs

  • Roasted Cauliflower. Let’s kick things off with a basic recipe that will surely blow your tastebuds away. You don’t need a lot to make cauliflower taste amazing.
  • Cauliflower Rice. Cauliflower rice is all the rage nowadays, and for good reason. With the gaining popularity of keto/low-carb diets, replacing grains and pasta with vegetables is becoming more and more common.
  • Cauliflower Casserole with Cream Cheese and Bacon. Everything tastes a thousand times better with cream cheese and bacon. Trust me, this cauliflower casserole will be gone in minutes.
  • Cauliflower Gnocchi. Cauliflower can’t only replace rice, but potatoes as well. In this recipe, instead of spuds, you’ll use cauliflower to make gnocchi.
  • Cauliflower Couscous. Couscous, a dish of small balls of semolina, is a staple in North African cuisine. As amazing as its texture is, though, it’s loaded with carbs.
  • Cauliflower Pizza Crust. If you’ve never tried cauliflower pizza crust, you’d be surprised at how much it tastes exactly like regular crust! The first time I tried it, I was blown away.
  • Baked Cauliflower Tots. Here’s another fantastic recipe wherein potatoes are replaced with cauliflower florets. Who needs spuds when cauliflower can get the job done, but minus the calories?
  • Buffalo Cauliflower Wings. Buffalo wings, but no chicken? Call me crazy, but I think they’re amazing. Even if I’ve made them several times already, I still find it hard to believe how these faux wings taste just like regular Buffalo wings.

51 CAULIFLOWER RECIPES WE WANT TO EAT ALL THE TIME

From bonappetit.com
  • Sticky and Spicy Baked Cauliflower. Forget the fry-pot, in this crispy cauliflower recipe, you'll batter and bake large florets to give them a crackly exterior that’s ideal for coating in the sticky-sweet gochujang glaze.
  • Grilled Cauliflower and Broccoli With Lentils. Take broccoli and cauliflower steaks out to the grill to develop a good bit of char before dressing them (and some accompanying lentils) in a zingy chutney dressing.
  • All-Dressed-Up Cauliflower Rice. No bland cauliflower rice here—this divine side dish recipe turns out a fluffy pilaf with plenty of texture (pepitas! golden raisins!)
  • Meal-Prep Roasted Vegetables. Roast a heap of whatever combination of cauliflower, broccoli, and carrots entices you and suddenly you have the building blocks for a week's worth of dinners.
  • Shingaras With Cauliflower and Potato Filling. Shingaras are a Bangladeshi style of samosas—filled and fried savory pastries usually served as an appetizer or snack.
  • Giardiniera Antipasto Platter. A mix of fresh and pickled vegetables gives this pre-dinner platter personality. For the ultimate cauliflower fan, load it up with both varieties.
  • Kung Pao Cauliflower. Searing the cauliflower before marinating softens it, opening up the florets and creating more surface area for the marinade to stick to.
  • Cauliflower Steaks. This vegetarian dinner is an ideal main dish for a romantic evening. Bonus: You'll want to spoon the spiced coconut relish over everything you eat.
  • Asian Pear Salad With Peanut-Lime Dressing. This sweet-tart salad gets its satisfying crisp-crunchy texture from floral Asian pears and nutty raw cauliflower.
  • Roasted Cauliflower Larb. Cauliflower might not be a traditional ingredient in larb recipes, but it sure makes for a delicious vegetable-forward (not vegetarian, because fish sauce) variation.
