Author Notes

Similar in execution as my Confetti Cauliflower, this is also a great appetizer, but more for the meateaters. It looks more pristine and not quite the center of attention...but oh! it has a lot of horseradish bite and a big dash of bacon flavors! —dymnyno

Wow. This has, sight unseen, just become my new favorite way to prepare cauliflower. All five ingredients are ones I cannot imagine living (or cooking) without. I can't wait to try this! Yummmm. ;o)

This looks really tasty.

Thanks , Tom. I was inspired by a potato chip dip (sour cream, bacon and horseradish) that I haven't seen in years, but I was addicted to once.

My husband AKA "bacon boy" is drooling...And cauliflower is his favorite vegetable. Thanks for another "keeper".
