Loaded Cauliflower Mash

I bought a head of cauliflower last week when I saw this recipe as I was killing time on Pinterest. It looked so good and I knew it would perfectly for dinner one night especially since I’m back on the LCHF (low carb, high fat) wagon. It looked so good and I knew it would help squash my cravings for carbs. It definitely did that and I loved it! The mash is super easy to make and went along with burgers (of course, bunless for me). I would have loved a little green onion in it, but I forgot to grab a bunch when I was grocery shopping.

head of cauliflower, cut into large pieces
2 cups sour cream
2 cups of shredded cheddar cheese
6 green onions, chopped
10 slices bacon, cooked and crumbled
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp fresh ground pepper

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Steam the cauliflower about 10 minutes or until fork tender. Once the cauliflower is cool enough to handle, chop into small pieces. Transfer to a mixing bowl. Add in the sour cream, 1 cup of cheddar cheese, and half of the green onions and crumbled bacon. Season with salt and pepper.

Transfer the mash to a 2-quart casserole dish and spread out evenly. Top with the remaining cheese and bake for 30 minutes. Remove from the oven and sprinkle the remaining bacon and green onions over the top. Serve immediately.
