  1. 1

    Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

    Meanwhile, beat the cream cheese with the milk in a bowl. Stir in the Parmesan and Cheddar cheeses.

    Combine the bread crumbs with the melted butter in a small bowl.

    Move the steamed cauliflower to a 2 1/2-quart casserole dish. Add the cheese-milk mixture and stir. Sprinkle the bread crumb mixture on top.
