3 c (about half of a head) shredded cauliflower
4 oz (about 1 c) shredded sharp cheddar cheese (I used light sharp cheddar)
1 egg
¼ c cornmeal
1 tsp salt
a few grinds black pepper
½ tsp ground mustard
I shredded my cauliflower in my Ninja. Use a food processor or something like that. You shred it raw.
Preheat your oven to 400°F. Spray a mini muffin tin with oil or coking spray. Combine all of the ingredients in a large bowl, and mix together thoroughly. I used a fork. Using a spoon, divide the mixture between the muffin cups and press down firmly into the cups. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown.

I just finished making these, but I added 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes, 1/4 cup bacon chopped very fine, 6 green onions chopped very fine and (1) additional egg. I did not add salt until I pulled them out of the oven and then I sprinkled them with medium coarse sea salt. I also extended the cook time to 24 minutes - will probably up it to 26-28 minutes next time. They have a lot of flavor and just enough spice for munching on naked or dipping in your favorite sauce.
