Cauliflower with tomatoes
Description
The recipe doesn't take much time. I add cauliflower to soups, bake it in the oven, and turn it into a puree. But this dish is my absolute favorite. Thanks to the tomatoes and hard cheese, it slightly resembles Italian pizza. All my family members simply adore cauliflower with tomatoes cooked in a skillet! I prepare it often, especially when I don't have time to spend long on dinner or when there's no meat. So, for me, cauliflower with tomatoes is a real lifesaver. I serve it with mashed potatoes, pasta, or any grain—the plates always end up empty. Be sure to try my recipe. Serve hot.

Then add the tomatoes, season with salt, and cook over low heat until the tomatoes release their juice.
