Ingredients
- 1 Medium head cauliflower
- 1 Tbs Trans-fat-free margarine spread
- 2 tsp All-purpose flour
- 1 cup Skim milk
- ½ cup Reduced-fat shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 freshpack Hooray Purée Butternut Squash or Carrot
- ½ tsp Salt
- Pinch of Pepper
- 2 Tbs Grated parmesan

Method
- Preheat the over to 400 Degrees.
- Bring medium saucepan of salted water to a boil.
- Cut the cauliflower into bite-size florets. Blanch for 2-3 minutes so that they just begin to get tender but are still firm. Drain in a colander. Set aside.
- In the same saucepan, melt the margarine. Whisk in the flour and cook 1 minute over medium heat. Slowly whisk in the milk to prevent lumps from forming and bring to a boil. The mixture will begin to thicken. Cook 2-3 minutes more. Reduce the heat to low and add the cheddar, puree, salt, and pepper.
- Add the cauliflower to the cheese mixture and transfer to a greased 9" baking dish. Top with grated Parmesan. Bake for 15 minutes until the gratin is bubbly and the top begins to brown. Serve immediately.
