Are you ready for a little cheesy decadence? The photo is a little dark. It's a

sweet potato and cauliflower casserole or side dish. The sauce is ready-to-eat

alfredo. Top with shredded cheddar - broil until brown and bubbly. Chive for

garnish and contrast.

 

 

The microwave cooks; and the broiler browns.
