I made these cauliflower and cheese breadsticks last week and I loved them. They are a good alternative to traditional breadsticks or garlic bread, and they’re delicious. Since they’re so versatile, you can serve them as an appetizer, as a side dish, and you can even send them in your children’s lunchboxes. My kids love it, and I’m sure you’ll also love their delicious flavor and the benefits provided by the cauliflower. Try them out and let me know what you think.

    Once again, place the cauliflower mix in a baking tray lined with wax paper. Pat the cauliflower down with your hands to make a rectangle.

    Bake for 18 minutes at 400 °F, take the tray out of the oven and sprinkle the cauliflower with the remaining 3/4 cup of cheese.
