AMAZING Cheesy Cauliflower

Oh, yes, this is a vegetable dish, but don't let the "cauliflower" in the title fool you. It is probably the most unhealthy vegetable you have ever eaten. It has enough fat and calories in the sauce to cancel out even the most minute amount of nutritional value you may receive from the cauliflower. That being said, this is one of our absolute most favorite, tasty vegetable side dishes we have ever made. Enjoy!

 

1 head cauliflower

salt and pepper to taste

1/2 cup chopped onion

2 Tablespoons butter
