Martha Stewart's easy cauliflower gratin recipe is the perfect 'lazy girl' side for Thanksgiving

I'm a lazy cook, so I need lazy sides to make for Thanksgiving.
I tried out Martha Stewart's insanely easy cauliflower gratin.
Since entering my mid-20s, I've been blessed with the gift of self-awareness. Whereas I used to tell people I loved cooking (even though I rarely did it and hardly ever tried new recipes), I've since learned that I don't really like it that much.
The kinds of things I like to cook, as it turns out, are quick and easy. I typically don't have the energy to do anything too involved and often fail when I do. I am, you might say, a "lazy girl" chef.
Will anyone mistake you for a Michelin-starred chef when you arrive with this side? Probably not. But it's quick, easy, and tasty enough to satisfy a crowd.
Here's how to make it.

In a bowl, combine the remaining cheese and the breadcrumbs. When the 30 minutes are up, sprinkle over the cauliflower.
