Steps:
- Cut cauliflower into medium-sized florets and process in batches in a food processor. For each batch, pulse until pieces break down and continue processing until texture resembles rice grains. Transfer to a large pot. Sprinkle with kosher salt. Cook over medium-high heat, stirring, until mixture is wet and soft, about 30 minutes. Reduce heat if it begins to brown. Remove from heat and allow cauliflower to cool.
- Transfer cauliflower in batches to a clean cotton towel. Bring up sides, twist towel, and squeeze out as much liquid as you can. For this recipe, you should have about 3 1/2 cups cooked, squeezed-dry cauliflower.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a large rectangular baking dish with parchment paper, allowing ends to extend up over the sides for easy lifting. Lightly brush parchment with olive oil.
- Crack eggs into a large mixing bowl. Add crushed garlic, oregano, pepper, and cayenne pepper; whisk together. Transfer cauliflower to mixing bowl. Add shredded Cheddar cheese and grated Parmigiano-Reggiano. Mix thoroughly. Transfer to prepared baking dish. Tamp down and smooth out evenly.
- Bake in preheated oven until deeply golden brown, about 1 hour. Allow to cool to room temperature. Cover and refrigerate until thoroughly chilled, 3 or 4 hours.
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with a silicone mat; lightly oil the mat.
- Lift cauliflower out of pan. Slice in half lengthwise; slice each half crosswise into thin "fries," about 1 inch wide. Arrange fries on the mat so they do not touch; brush lightly with olive oil. Sprinkle with a dusting of grated Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese.
- Bake in preheated oven until deeply browned, about 20 to 25 minutes. Allow to cool slightly before serving.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
- Cook the bacon in a medium nonstick skillet over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until brown and crispy, 6 to 7 minutes. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate. Reserve 2 tablespoons of the bacon drippings.
- Put the cauliflower florets in a 3-quart casserole dish. Toss with the reserved 2 tablespoons bacon drippings, 3/4 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Roast until the florets are soft and begin to brown, about 30 minutes.
- Meanwhile, mix together the cream cheese and 1 cup of the Cheddar in a medium bowl until well combined. Dollop over the cauliflower, then sprinkle with the remaining 1 cup Cheddar and bake until the cauliflower is tender when poked with a knife and the Cheddar is melted and bubbly, 5 to 7 minutes more.
- Dollop the sour cream evenly over the casserole and sprinkle with the scallions and reserved bacon pieces.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- Cook the onions, potatoes and garlic: In a large bowl, toss the onions in 2 tablespoons oil, season generously with salt and pepper and spread on one side of a sheet pan. In the same bowl, toss the potatoes in 1 tablespoon oil, season generously with salt and pepper and spread on the other side of the sheet pan. Toss the garlic in the same bowl with a little oil, season with salt and pepper and add to the sheet pan. Bake in the center of the oven until completely tender when pierced with the tip of a knife, about 40 minutes. Set aside to let cool.
- Cook the peppers: In a large cast-iron skillet over medium heat, heat 3 tablespoons oil until hot. Add the peppers with a generous pinch of salt and cook over medium heat until tender and slightly browned, 5 to 8 minutes.
- Cook the home fries: Add the onions and garlic to the peppers and stir to combine. "Crush" and break the potatoes into pieces with your hands or the bottom of a pan and add them and any juices from the pan to the peppers and onions. Season with salt and red pepper flakes. Cook the potato mixture over medium-high heat until the bottom is browned, 2 to 3 minutes, then flip and cook for another 2 to 3 minutes.
- Stir in the Parmesan and vinegar. Top with the Cheddar. Place the skillet in the oven and bake until the cheese is browned, 8 to 10 minutes. Season with salt just before serving.
MEDITERRANEAN ROASTED CAULIFLOWER WITH OLIVES
This cauliflower medley is a great way to perk up your menu. It can be served warm as a side dish, or at room temperature and tossed with romaine lettuce as a salad. Warming the herbs and garlic in the oil prior to tossing with the veggies helps their flavor bloom. When ready to serve, drizzle on as much or as little balsamic vinegar as you like.
