Any substitution for egg and cheese. I'm not vegetarian but I just don't do well with any dairy.

Hi there! Unfortunately, the egg and cheese cannot be substituted in this recipe because they are both used to bind the cauliflower muffins together.

If that's the case, why would you even move forward with this recipe? Google is your friend, and will help you find recipes that match with your diet. Don't expect recipe sites to help you meet your dietary needs - for this, you're on your own.

can I freeze these?

Test Kitchen Team

Hi there! The Test Kitchen has not tried freezing this recipe, so cannot recommend doing so. We believe that they might become a little watery after thawing, so we recommend testing one before freezing all of these tasty Mini Cauliflower Muffins. Enjoy!

Why don't you do it, then report back? Just eat them for a few days or make another recipe. These sites aren't responsible for your culinary diversions - just try it and deal with the results.

Hi Receipe sounds good. Only thing,I do not have a food processor my blender is not that great. Can I just try chop the cauliflower small?

Test Kitchen Team

Hi there! If you do not have a food processor it's okay to chop the cauliflower in this recipe. Make sure to chop it finely and you'll have the same outstanding results. Enjoy!

Also, although a little more expensive, you can buy already chopped cauliflower in the produce dept with the bagged salad. Not everyone carries it, but it's so much easier than chopping by hand.

Why is this something you would ask from a recipe development site? Just make the recipe in a way that works for you instead of operating from fear. If you're an experienced cook, this should be a no-brainer. If not, perhaps another site would be more your speed.
