Ingredients:

Serving

1 cauliflower, cut into florets (about 6 cups)
1 tbsp butter
2 garlic cloves, minced
2 1/2 tbsp all-purpose flour
1 1/2 cups milk
1/4 cup sun-dried tomato, thinly sliced
1/2 tsp sweet paprika
1/4 tsp pepper
3/4 cup old cheddar cheese

Directions:

In a large pot of boiling water, boil cauliflower for about 7 minutes or until just tender. Drain well; set aside.
Meanwhile, in a small saucepan, melt butter over medium heat. Sauté garlic for 1 minute until fragrant. Whisk flour into milk; gradually pour into pan whisking constantly. Stir in sun-dried tomatoes, paprika, and pepper and cook, stirring for about 3 minutes or until bubbling and thickened. Remove from heat and stir in half the cheese until melted. Pour over cauliflower in a heatproof serving dish; sprinkle with remaining cheese.
COOKING TIP: To save time you can purchase pre-cut cauliflower and in a pinch use thawed frozen cauliflower and just boil for 1-2 minutes or until hot. Be sure to drain the cauliflower very well to prevent watering down the cheese sauce.
FOR THE ADVENTUROUS: Make this a crumb-topped gratin: Spread cauliflower mixture in a shallow 8-cup baking dish. Combine 1 cup fresh whole wheat bread crumbs, 1/2 cup additional shredded cheese, 1 tablespoons melted butter, 1 Tbsp chopped fresh basil, and pepper to taste; sprinkle over cauliflower. Bake in 400F oven for 15 minutes or until lightly browned.
