Bake in the preheated oven for 40 minutes, or until the cheese is melted, bubbly, and lightly golden brown.
For a richer flavor, try using Gruyere or Emmental cheese instead of Swiss.
Add a sprinkle of paprika or a pinch of nutmeg for an extra layer of flavor.
If you prefer a softer cauliflower, microwave for a minute or two longer. Be careful not to overcook it, as it will become mushy.
Fresh herbs like thyme or parsley can be added before baking for a more aromatic dish.
