Cook cauliflower: Divide the cauliflower into small florets and finely chop the stem as well.

Drain well; place back in the pot or a large bowl.25 oz cauliflower + salt

Notes

Cauliflower: Use 1 large head. You can use frozen cauliflower as well. Add frozen cauliflower to the pot to save time - it defrosts quickly in hot water. Drain, cool, and chop if needed.
Meat: Ground beef or hamburger.
Stock made with a cube and hot water is fine.
Cheese: Cheddar, Gouda, or any cheese you like to use for making casseroles.
