- 1 - small head cauliflower broken into flowerets
- 8 - medium tomatoes
- 2 tablespoons - butter
- 1 - green onion finely chopped

- 1 cups - milk
- 1 1/2 cups - shredded cheddar cheese

Directions:
Cook cauliflower in boiling water just until tender, about 8 minutes; drain.
Remove tops and centers from tomatoes; turn upside down to drain.
