Cauliflower "Mac" and Cheese Casserole
Why I Love This Recipe
Ingredients You'll Need
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 large head cauliflower, cut into small florets
Vegetable oil spray
.75 cup heavy cream
2 ounces cream cheese, cut into small pieces
1.5 cups shredded sharp Cheddar (.5 of it is used to top casserole)
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
8 by 8-inch baking dish
Directions
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Spray the baking dish with vegetable oil spray.
Cook the cauliflower in the microwave or on stove top with boiling water until tender, about 5 minutes. Drain well and pat dry between paper towels. Put the cauliflower in the baking dish and set aside.
Bring the cream to a simmer in a small saucepan and mix in the cream cheese pieces until smooth. Stir in 1 cup of the cheese, salt, pepper and garlic mixing until the cheese melts. Pour over the cauliflower and stir to coat cauliflower. Top with the remaining 1/2 cup cheese and bake until browned and bubbly hot.
