Ingredients

Scale

Vegetables

  • 1 large head of cauliflower, cut into florets

Dairy

  • 2 cups shredded cheese (such as cheddar or a cheese blend)
  • 1 cup heavy cream

Instructions

  1. Prepare the cauliflower: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Wash and cut the cauliflower into bite-sized florets.
  2. Mix ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the cauliflower florets, shredded cheese, and heavy cream. Stir until the cauliflower is evenly coated with cream and cheese.
  3. Bake the casserole: Transfer the mixture into a greased baking dish. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the casserole is bubbly and the cheese is golden brown on top.
  4. Serve: Let the casserole cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm as a side dish.

Notes

  • Use a cheese blend for more depth of flavor.
  • For a lighter version, substitute heavy cream with half-and-half or a lower-fat cream alternative.
  • Adding breadcrumbs on top before baking provides a crispy texture.
  • To make it gluten-free, ensure any added breadcrumbs are gluten-free or omit them.
