CHEDDAR BACON CAULIFLOWER CASSEROLE

With so many people doing lower-carb diets now, I’ve been looking to develop recipes with more vegetables and fewer potatoes.

Some people don’t like cauliflower used as a pizza crust, pasta, and potatoes. However, cauliflower is the perfect vegetable for this sine it takes on whatever flavor you add to it.

IS CAULIFLOWER REALLY GOOD FOR YOU?

Yes. Actually, cauliflower is considered a superfood because of its nutrient-rich content. It is high in fiber and vitamins. Its ingredients may help strengthen bones, boost the cardiovascular system, and prevent cancer. It also contains high concentrations of carotenoids (antioxidants) and glucosinolates.

Additionally, of the 100 grams of cauliflower in one serving, 92 grams is water.

KETO VEGETABLE SIDE

CAN FROZEN CAULIFLOWER BE USED IN THIS RECIPE?

I used fresh, but you can certainly use frozen cauliflower.

I steamed fresh cauliflower so if you’re using frozen make note it’ll take longer to cook.

CAN I MAKE THIS CASSEROLE AHEAD OF TIME?

Absolutely! You can make it completely then cover and refrigerate. As well, you can steam the cauliflower, but the recipe together then bake it when you’re ready.

HOW LONG WILL IT KEEP IN THE FRIDGE?

This Cauliflower Casserole will be good for 3 to 4 days covered in an airtight container in the refrigerator.

Personally, I don’t like this casserole frozen.

KETO VEGGIE CASSEROLE

CHEDDAR BACON CAULIFLOWER CASSEROLE TIPS

  • First, steam the cauliflower sufficiently so that it’s fork-tender. It should no longer have a hard, crunchy texture.
  • When cheese bakes on a casserole dish, it’s so difficult to clean. Be sure to spray your pan generously with non-stick spray.
  • As well, I don’t recommend using low-fat cheese.
  • Further, if you like turkey bacon you can use it. I prefer ‘real’ bacon.
  • Between the cheese, bacon, and hummus, I find the only seasoning this casserole needs is salt and pepper. Fill free to add cayenne pepper or paprika if you like them.
  • Finally, you can garnish with green onions or chives.
