This is my third attempt at making mockaroni and cheese with cauliflower. The only problem with this particular recipe is that there was some excess liquid after baking. I think this is from the cottage cheese. I just drained it out. I will have to say that so far my favorite mockaroni and cheese recipe goes to the second one I made. You can check out that recipe here. I think the addition of cream cheese and half and half makes the recipe. I tried all three recipes so that you can decide which one you like better because everyone has their own preference. Also, I did run it through Nutrition Support and it is definitely OP friendly! Enjoy!
