Cheesy Cauliflower Casserole
Is there a better combo than cauliflower and cheese? Ok, broccoli and cheese is pretty good too, but this casserole is all about cauliflower!
My family loves this Cauliflower Casserole. My 3 girls give it 6 thumbs up. You can serve this as a side dish, but we often have this for dinner as a main course, along with a French baguette or dinner rolls and nothing else because it’s so filling.
This loaded cauliflower bake is made with simple ingredients that you probably already have in your kitchen and only takes 30 minutes to bake! Because it’s so easy, it’s a good option for crazy weeknights!

Cauliflower Cheese Bake Ingredients
Here’s the ingredients you’ll need for this Cauliflower Cheese Bake. Nothing fancy, just simple ingredients!
What cheese for a cheesy casserole?
A good cheese makes all the difference! You can use regular bagged shredded cheddar cheese (I always prefer the thick cut shredded), but if you want to make it really special, look for a quality aged cheddar cheese – either shredded already or in a block that you can grate. Look at this gorgeous cheddar cheese! YUM!
How to Make Cheddar Cheese Cauliflower Casserole
Bring water to a boil in a large pot. Add cauliflower and frozen corn. Drain and place cauliflower and corn into a baking dish. In a saucepan, melt butter and then add flour, stirring until smooth. Add milk and some of the cheese, and continue mixing until you have a cheese sauce. Pour cheese sauce on top of the vegetables and mix so it fully coats the cauliflower. Sprinkle with salt and pepper to taste. Add remaining cheddar cheese on top. Bake until bubbly and then broil for a couple of minutes to brown the top. Serve and enjoy this Cheddar Cheese Cauliflower Casserole!
