Fantastic! Only change I made was using French Onion sour cream dip because it was on sale :) Hubby, kids, and mother in-law were wowed by this. Hubby even said it was in the top 5 of his favorite dishes I have ever made! (He is a type 1 diabetic and this recipe was perfect for low carb)

Made this for thanksgiving and it was so so so good!!! I initially made this side for my dad who has to watch his carbs so I cut the recipe in half. I’m kicking myself now because it was all gone and now I don’t have leftovers. Definitely will be making it again!! Thanks!

Didn't realize I was out of sour cream so subbed mayo instead. Also added cooked ground beef to make it a complete meal. My family loved it! So yummy ?

Made this recipe twice so far. Second time I got distracted and forgot to add the sour cream. Both versions were a big hit. It's one of my family's new favorites. My husband asks for it often &amp; is even willing to go get any of the ingredients I may need.

Looks very good but I don't like cream cheese can I substitute the cream cheese for something else instead?

I made it and thank you so much, it was delicious.  Gonna throw some hamburg in next time to make it a complete meal....   Loved it!

I made this for Christmas to rave reviews! It's been requested again for Easter!!!

Not one who loves cauliflower but this casserole changed my mind! SO delicious.

I have not made this as of yet because I do not buy Fresh Cauliflower. I always buy Frozen as its mixed with other Veggies. This Recipe sounds so Delish I am seriously thinking of buying fresh to make it for my first  ever fresh dish! WOW! Thank You for the Inspiration!

I made this tonight and it is awesome! I am a single person so I cut the recipe in half. I used onion and chive cream cheese spread in place of the cream cheese block, and turkey bacon pieces. Yummy!

This looks wonderful!  The addition of bacon just puts it over the top!  Yum!

I've never made casserole with cauliflower until now and I'm sure it won't be my last time - thank you for such a delicious recipe!

Ooh this looks so good! :D  I love cauliflower but I've never made it in a casserole...perfect low-carb dish for the season ;D

This casserole is delicious. I love it. Have made it over and over

Made this for a cookout tonight.   I wanted a side dish that I could eat.   It was the first dish gone!  Everyone loved it and thought it was scalloped potatoes.  Next time I will double the recipe.

My husband loves cauliflower. He would be delighted to see this casserole on the table, it looks good.

This casserole was so good! I made it as a side dish, but next time I will make the main dish, so hearty and yummy!

Made this for my family and it was a hit! So good!

This was really amazing! Thank you for the recipe!!

So delicious with tons of great flavor! Yum!

We have been making a lot more recipes with cauliflower lately &amp; this will definitely get added!! Looks so flavorful!

Wow, yummy! You had me at cheese and bacon...lol :) Such an awesome recipe.

This recipe totally makes cauliflower rich and decadent! Incredibly delicious! Perfect side for Thanksgiving instead of potatoes!

I love cauliflower and this is such a delicious recipe.  The whole family loves it every time I make it!

Adding this to my must make list. I am over here thinking I should go to the grocery store and buy the ingredients and make today. yum

I made this and only thing I changed was used plain Greek yogurt in place of the sour cream, which I do in all recipes.  Excellent recipe!!

We LOVE this recipe! We add in shredded chicken for some protein, but this is one meal that our 4 year old and  2 year old daughters gobble up! Seriously speaking though, cream cheese and sour cream make everything better. :) Thank you so much for this regular dinner rotation!

What a fantastic casserole this is. I cannot wait to make this.

Yum! This delicious loaded cauliflower casserole was a huge hi t with my whole fam!Emily

I love recipes that have so many tips in the comment section like this.  You can get so many ideas from readers who have tried the recipes. This truly is loaded and looks like my kind of cauliflower!

So yummy.   I added sautéed onions, mushrooms, and celery.  Then, I  replaced the bacon with Browned ground turkey.  This will be something that I will make again, as my husband said, “Please, do not forget what you did to make this recipe”.  It’s a great comfort food casserole and I served with a simple tomato, cucumber onion side salad.  Healthy alternative with all the flavor as an unhealthy dish that’s so tempting in this quarantined uncertainty.  Thanks for the inspiration!

I love finding new ways to hide veggies! The whole family devoured this so we will definitely be making it again! Yay!

This WAS like a fully loaded baked potato! The cheesiness of the casserole was so creamy and the bacon put it over the top. Plus I felt so much better eating this lower carb side than I would have with the potato alternative. Thanks for the delicious recipe that I will be making again and again!

This tasted great!  I left the cream cheese out over an hour - but maybe it needed longer?  When I put the cheeses, etc. together it seemed like it was the consistency of a cheese ball - and mixing it with the cauliflower was impossible.  I even put it in the mixer and mixed hard - but it still would have smashed up the cauliflower. So I put the cauliflower in the pan and gently spooned the cheese mixture over in small spoonfuls.  I almost added milk - but glad I did not - it was really good.

Yum! I love this as an alternative to mashed potatoes! Delicious and wonderfully easy!

Absolutely love this recipe!  My first time making it and will make it again.   I replaced the potatoes and made this instead of them because I need to cut  the carbs out as much as I can.  Very easy to make also.  Thanks for the recipe.

This dish is delicious and it will definitely be added to recipe book!

This might be the only way I ever eat cauliflower again!  This was great and even better on day 2.

This recipe is excellent and who knew cauliflower could taste so darn good!!.... Not me.

I did modify the recipe by reducing the cream cheese to 1/2 of a block and reduced the cheese to roughly a cup and used bacon bits (because Im lazy) instead of bacon and it was  still excellent and I also roasted my cauliflower.

Made this dish for my family tonight they thought it was a potato dish, they never had cauliflower made like this before...yummy!!!

I absolutely love this casserole. I add 2 packages of diced ham to make a meal. Its amazing and I feel like I'm eating cheesy potatoes!

So, so yummy! I made this for Easter dinner with my husband’s family and everyone raved. I even ate it for breakfast the next morning! I used frozen cauliflower for the first time ever, and it’s going to be my go-to from now on. My husband and I are both diabetic, so this was an added bonus. Thank you!
