A simple meal to make in a HOTLOGIC^® is Cheesy Cauliflower & Ham. I use frozen cauliflower. Spiral ham is a good choice. It heats well in the HOTLOGIC^® and doesn’t dry out.

For the sauce I searched the internet for a cheese sauce and found a simple, two-ingredient recipe. It uses sour cream and cheddar cheese. I prefer sharp cheddar cheese. When I experimented with shredded versus block cheese to see which melted better, I didn’t find much of a difference. Both melted and combined well with the sour cream. Neither of them came out smooth and creamy when I used a fork to stir to combine. But once the sauce was poured over and stirred on the cauliflower, it didn’t seem to matter.

A variation to this recipe would be to used broccoli in place of the cauliflower. I believe this recipe would also work well with reconstituted freeze-dried broccoli.
