Vegan Cauliflower Cheese

Vegan Cauliflower Cheese

By OcadoPublished on 16 February 2023Creamy and comforting cauliflower cheese is a staple side dish for Sunday roasts, and our plant-based version is no different. Add this dish to your vegan repertoire for a simple crowd pleaser that you’ll return to again and again –especially as we’ve used pre-grated ‘cheese’ for ease. Try the sauce stirred through mac ‘n’ cheese, poured over veggie lasagne or baked in a gratin.
