Garlic Cauliflower and Mushrooms Recipe for Two
My Cauliflower can’t be mushy, it needs to have a bit of a bite. I eat mushrooms anyway I can, I love them. This recipe surprised me with its flavor. The garlic was a nice touch and the Parmesan added a nutty note. I didn’t use the red pepper flakes because I am a wimp with spicy food.

Notes
I have only used frozen cauliflower for this recipe. A head of fresh cauliflower is too much for us to use.
We use Cremini or Baby Bellas but any mushroom you prefer will work here.
We use Belgioioso Parmesan Snacking Cheese it lasts for a long time in the fridge without having to open a large amount of Parmesan, it also tastes delicious.
