DIRECTIONS

1. Preheat oven to 180°C (350°F).
2. Béchamel Sauce: In a small saucepan, melt butter over low heat; stir in flour. Cook, stirring with wooden spoon, for 1 or 2 minutes to make a paste. Gradually stir in milk, nutmeg and salt; cook, stirring, for 5 or 6 minutes or until mixture thickens. Set aside.
3. Meanwhile, in a food processor, pulse bacon and cereal until coarsely ground; set aside. In a large pot of boiling salted water, blanch cauliflower florets for 2 or 3 minutes.

Sprinkle the bacon mixture over top; bake for 20 to 25 minutes or until hot and bubbly. Broil for 1 or 2 minutes or until top is browned.
