You’re four ingredients away from a crispy twist on the cauliflower dinner dish that everyone loves.
As I was heading down the freezer aisle with the intent to pick up some frozen French fries (to make this recipe), I spotted frozen breaded cauliflower. My kids love it, so I threw 2 bags into my shopping cart. And then I realized that while I could use it as a side dish with some sweet chili sauce as a dipping sauce, I had a much more clever idea. I think the trick in being a great cook is knowing when to take shortcuts that don’t affect the quality and taste of your cooking. And now was one of the times I’d take advantage of a shortcut. So here you go: a 4-ingredient easy gourmet dinner done in minutes.
- 1 (24 ounce) package Bgan Frozen Breaded Cauliflower
- 1 (26 ounce) jar marinara sauce
- 8 ounce shredded mozzarella cheese
- 2-3 tablespoons Parmesan cheese
- Preheat oven to 425ºF.
- Spread frozen breaded cauliflower on a baking sheet and bake for 15 minutes or until golden and crispy on the edges.
- Lower oven to 350ºF. In a 8- x 8-inch pan (or 9- to 10-inch round baking pan), layer sauce. Add ½ of the cauliflower, ½ of the cheese, and some Parmesan cheese. Add another layer of the sauce, the remaining cauliflower, remaining sauce, remaining cheese, and Parmesan.
- Cover and bake for 30 minutes. Uncover and bake an additional 15 minutes.

Looks delicious. At what point did you add the lettuce leaves?
Leah Schapira says
Its a garnish of parsley leaves. Just to make it look prettier.

U think it would work with unbreaded cauliflower?
Ruchie says
This is a really old post but just came across it. Im wondering the same. If anyone can answer if they made this with unbreaded cauliflower and let us know if it comes out good?. Thanks!

Hi,
Sure you can use unbreaded cauliflower but it doesn’t have that eggplant parm style. Its like roasted cauliflower with sauce and cheese.

Can you freeze the leftovers

Is there a way to bread my own cauliflower that’s not too time consuming?
