Cauliflower and Tomatoes

This recipe is a nice alternative to the basic cauliflower side dish.

The tomatoes and onions blend well with the seasonings and would honestly make a nice side dish on their own.

I steamed my cauliflower for about 10 minutes – I like my vegetables to have some texture and a little crunch.

The cheese and cracker crumb mixture provides a great crust. You get a bit of the cheesiness with each bite.

This was a good side dish that we will more than likely be making again!
