CAULIFLOWER AND MACARONI
This is another wonderful old recipe from my Aunt. Can also be made with broccoli and any type of pasta. This is a great way to use up any leftover quantities of dried macaroni.

HEALTHIER CAULIFLOWER MACARONI AND CHEESE
Adapted from Littlebigblog.com. This is a healthier take on macaroni and cheese subbing cauliflower (or other starchy veggies like turnips, summer squash) for pasta and reducing the amount of cheese used by substituting nutritional yeast. Like all my recipes, this is ultimately adaptable to your own tastes and larder. Great as a casserole topped with bread crumbs.
