No — Cauliflower Cheese is not ultra-processed.
Great choice! Made with simple, familiar ingredients.
This appears to be a cauliflower cheese dish made primarily from cauliflower, milk, cheddar cheese, cream, and ordinary culinary ingredients. Cornflour, wheat flour, mustard powder, salt, spices, onion, and standard vitamin and mineral fortification (calcium, folic acid, iron, niacin, and thiamin) do not make it ultra-processed under NOVA. It contains no industrial sweeteners, flavor enhancers, emulsifiers, stabilizers, refined or hydrogenated oils, or artificial or natural flavorings that would trigger a UPF classification.

Ultra-processed foods (UPFs) are industrial formulations made with ingredients and additives you wouldn't find in a home kitchen — such as emulsifiers, artificial flavourings, colourings and modified starches. The classification is based on the NOVA system used by researchers and dietitians worldwide.
