Рецепт Cauliflower Gratin with Smoked Mozzarella and Walnuts #sides #holidays
So, the protein is taken care of and so are the carbs.But what about the sides?Yes, there’s the Green Bean Casserole,the Sweet Potato Casserole and Brussels Sprouts and Stuffing, but how about some cheesy Cauliflower Gratin that uses minimal ingredients, tastes fantastic and is a breeze since you just mix the ingredients and let the oven do all the work for you.Sounds good right?!!
I absolutely love Cauliflower and could have it every night for my dinner.Cauliflower is not typically your first choice for a side dish during the holidays and I wonder why.Its about time it got its due and why not.Its an amazing vegetable that’s easily available and you can really get creative with it.Gratins are a great way to enjoy any vegetable and they’re the perfect side dish for any party.They’re easy to make, look elegant on any table and effortless!
My Caulflower gratin has been inspired by this recipe and I’ve added some smoked Mozzarella that adds that wonderful smokiness to the dish and walnuts just to make it more festive.The cauliflower has a wonderful crunch that I just love and the blend of parmesan and smoked mozzarella is pure joy.I’ve added some chili flakes for a slight kick and its purely optional.All in all an amazing side dish for the holidays or any day for that matter.Enjoy!
