Meanwhile, combine breadcrumbs, 1/4 cup cheese and oil in a small bowl. Whisk flour and the remaining 1/4 cup milk in another small bowl until smooth; stir the mixture into the pan and cook, stirring, until thickened, about 1 minute.

Easy and great way to spice up cauliflower This is a great way to spice up cauliflower. Added some variety to plain old steam cauliflower. Also a great alternative to mac and cheese! I am a pasta lover but now that I have made this, the next time I am craving mac and cheese, I'll reach for this recipe instead. I was going to take a photo, but we ate it all before I had a chance! Pros: Quick and easy to make

Try it! Really liked this! Used fat free half and half for added richness and added 1 ham steak, diced. Kicked up the spices a bit, too.

This is awesome, I used panko crumbs instead of regular bread crumbs, and it was really nice and crunchy.
