Abel and Cole's Cauliflower and Three Cheese Comfort Supper


 Cauliflower and Three Cheese Comfort Supper, an easy vegetarian pasta bake.

 Cauliflower and Three Cheese Comfort Supper


Abel and Cole very kindly sent me a copy of their new cookbook recently which certainly helped me get over the disappointment of finding out they don't yet deliver in my area - one of the downsides of living in Cornwall!

This recipe leapt out at me combining two of my favourite meals, cauliflower cheese and macaroni cheese! I obviously had to make it...and give it a few tweaks too.

I love the fact the recipe uses mug and dollop measures so you don't even need to get the scales out!

TOP TIPS FOR MAKING THE CAULIFLOWER AND THREE CHEESE COMFORT SUPPER

  • Use different cheeses such as gruyere or grana padana.
  • Up the veg by adding some broccoli florets with the cauliflower.
  • It can be made a couple of days ahead of time or even frozen.

WHAT TO SERVE WITH THE CAULIFLOWER & 3 CHEESE COMFORT SUPPER?

This really is a meal in itself but some extra portions of veggies on the side would be good. If I was making this for kids, I would serve some sweetcorn, peas and carrots for extra vitamins. Adults might like a crusty baguette and glass of wine!
