I did use reduced fat sharp cheddar, light sour cream and fat free milk, and no one noticed. I also had to sub panko breadcrumbs, and we liked the topping.

This is an absolute favorite ... with a couple of minor changes to address the issues noted with the dish sometimes being watery. I replaced 1 cup of the milk and the mushrooms with a can of cream of mushroom soup for a creamy, cheesy side dish that has been a favorite at every covered dish event. Yummy!<\/p>","CommentId":3,"DateRated":"12\/14\/2016 21:40","GUID":"aeb240b52bad4c0f97c02213e6af8635","MemberId":8985782,"Rating":5,"ScreenName":"Marcia","SubmittedDate":"12\/14\/2016 21:39"},{"Comment":"
My husband doesn't like potatoes and I had, at my son's request, bought a head of purple cauliflower so when I saw this recipe, I decided to give it a shot. I didn\u2019t have any sour cream so I used a little extra butter and milk instead. My husband and i both really wnjoyed this recipe and my daughter, who is usually leery of cauliflower, ate a healthy bowl for dinner as well. Telling her it was a bowl of purple and pink (ham) and adding a little feta and parmesan did help too.<\/p>
But I would definitely do this again! Not a good weeknight meal if you're in a hurry, as this recipe ended up taking closer to 1.5 hours than the one hour listed on the recipe. A winner in my book.<\/p>","CommentId":4,"DateRated":"06\/30\/2016 21:43","GUID":"3e09ee45ec99446fbe06f07f6fe23ba1","MemberId":3030797,"Rating":5,"ScreenName":"hkpepin","SubmittedDate":"06\/30\/2016 21:42"},{"Comment":"
I'm not a big cauliflower fan, but I thought I might enjoy it in this dish. I think it's a good recipe, but I probably won't make it again. I may try it using potatoes, since the cheese sauce was tasty and the recipe had a good balance of ingredients. I did use reduced fat sharp cheddar, light sour cream and fat free milk, and no one noticed. I also had to sub panko breadcrumbs, and we liked the topping. Since some people commented about it being watery, I returned the cauliflower back to the pot, after draining, to \"dry\" them for a minute or so, while stirring over medium-low heat.<\/p>","CommentId":5,"DateRated":"02\/16\/2016 22:15","GUID":"5f45cf8e7ded46548c603ec5ac23cc21","MemberId":3311639,"Rating":4,"ScreenName":"hbaseley","SubmittedDate":"02\/16\/2016 22:15"},{"Comment":"
My family and I loved it! Will surely make it again.

This is a good recipe if you're trying to cut back on your carbs since most ham casserole recipes contain potatoes. I sauteed finely chopped onions and red pepper in the butter for extra flavor and left out the canned mushrooms. This does NOT reheat well since the leftovers become watery.<\/p>","CommentId":8,"DateRated":"06\/10\/2014 08:08","GUID":"2a037f97e10d4685aa43e142c241ab6e","MemberId":2880256,"Rating":3,"ScreenName":"jmkasprak","SubmittedDate":"06\/10\/2014 08:08"},{"Comment":"
Excellent recipe! The only change I made was to leave out the mushrooms. I noticed it was somewhat watery, but since no one else mentioned this problem, I must have either not drained the cauliflower enough or didn't let it rest before eating. I served this with a Greek salad and asiago cheese dinner rolls.<\/p>","CommentId":9,"DateRated":"","GUID":"51582c50157c44209c2b592017358c0d","MemberId":3741999,"Rating":5,"ScreenName":"katlaydee3","SubmittedDate":"02\/23\/2014 03:11"},{"Comment":"

Definately a keeper. I added a 1\/2 tsp Bavarian seasoning (by Penzeys with crushed brown mustard, rosemary, garlic, thyme, bay leaves & sage) to heighten the flavor.

I get requests for this recipe all the time. Even a friend of mine who swears she hates cauliflower goes back for seconds. I use fresh mushrooms and saute it in a little olive oil and butter instead of canned for better flavor. I add salt and pepper as it is not even listed in the ingredients. The salt content comes from the ham mostly so I'm surprised to read the reviews of others. My mom is on a salt restricted diet and even she gobbles this casserole up. This is a favorite of my house and I will continue making it for years to come!<\/p>","CommentId":12,"DateRated":"06\/18\/2012 14:13","GUID":"43a987b5ec534af2af21390e30b9d110","MemberId":2996717,"Rating":5,"ScreenName":"cribb73","SubmittedDate":"06\/18\/2012 14:13"},{"Comment":"

This is a good recipe if you need to use ham leftovers. I read a review saying it was too salty but I disagreed. I think it could have used a little in the sauce.

I would make it again because my husband adored it, and it was an easy way to get vegetables into my boys! It was good, but not fabulous.
