cheesy cauliflower

This loaded cauliflower casserole is so easy to make. It's cheesy and has lots of bacon. You'll love making this recipe this fall!

Loaded Cauliflower Bake

cauliflower,

butter

garlic,

tbsp. all-purpose flour

c. whole milk

cream cheese, softened

c. shredded cheddar, divided

Kosher salt

black pepper

bacon,

c. sliced green onions

This dish was delish!  I used almond flour instead of regular (daughter has gluten allergy) and almond milk instead of whole milk. I didn’t blanch the cauliflower but I did have to bake it about 50 minutes to absorb the liquid. It was worth the wait!

Made it keto and delicious.  Substituted flour with almond flour and milk with almond milk.  You could also use cornstarch instead of flour. Shredded my own cheese to cut the carbs from pre-shredded, packaged cheese. If you're craving macaroni and cheese, this is a great lower carb substitute. Measure your ingredients to get the nutritional values if needed. This recipe is versatile, so ignore the negative reviews and make it work for you!

Made this for the family and my hubby who doesn't eat veggies at it! I used cream instead of milk and almond flour. I agree this is barley enough for 4 people, none the less this will be a side for Thanksgiving.

Delicious! The only change I made was two less strips of bacon. I think this could become a staple "base" for my family. Love the idea of adding broccoli and chicken!

This was an amazing recipe my husband and I loved it only changes I did was added chicken and broccoli to the mix and it was so filling!! Will definitely be making this again!

Recipe sounds delish and I’m gonna try it! My husband is diabetic but we are cognizant of carbs, sugar, etc. I love to live healthy and we are both major label readers. The comments on this post are annoying. Do your own research and stop complaining because you are given a wonderful FREE recipe. 🙄

Oh my heavens !!! This recipe is amazing.

Reviewers, stop asking for nutritional value! You can easily look it up yourself by researching each ingredient of the recipe. You have the internet! lol
Great recipe, btw!

Cheesy Broccoli and Cauliflower Gratin Recipe

whole wheat

butter (softened)

table salt

cauliflower (about 1½ pounds (**SEE NOTE))

broccoli (about 1 pound (**SEE NOTE))

unsalted butter

yellow onion (diced (about 2 tablespoons))

garlic (minced)

all-purpose flour

heavy cream

chicken broth

nutmeg

dry mustard

red pepper flakes

Parmesan cheese

Cheddar cheese

salt

Heat oven to 425°F and set the oven rack to middle position.

Spray a 2-quart (11x7) casserole dish with nonstick cooking spray.

Tear each slice of bread into 4 pieces.

Place the bread, butter, salt, pepper and herbs in a food processor fitted with the metal blade. Process until coarse crumbs form, about ten 1-second pulses. Set aside.

For the Bread Topping:

Trim the cauliflower and broccoli into ¾-inch florets. If using broccoli stalks, use only ½-inch of stalk next to the floret.

Fill a Dutch oven or stockpot 2/3rds full with water. Add 1-tablespoon salt and bring the water to a boil. Stir the boiling water and add the cauliflower and broccoli. Cook until the vegetables have a slight bite, 3-4 minutes and drain.

Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add butter and cook just until foaming subsides.

Add onion and cook until softened and translucent, 2-3 minutes.

Add garlic and cook 30 seconds.

Sprinkle the flour over the onion/garlic mixture; stir and cook about 1 minute.

Reduce the heat to medium-low and whisk in the cream and broth (or wine). While stirring, bring to a boil.

Reduce heat to low and add nutmeg, salt, red pepper flakes, dry mustard, and black pepper. Cook (and stir) just until mixture has thickened a little.

Add both cheeses and stir until cheese is melted.

Remove from the heat and add the cauliflower and broccoli; stir gently to coat the vegetables

Transfer cauliflower/broccoli mixture to the prepared dish and sprinkle with the breadcrumb topping.

Bake at 425°F for 15-20 minutes or until the sauce bubbles around the edges and the top is golden brown. Serve immediately.

Enjoy!
