Time 55m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 large head cauliflower
4 ounces cream cheese (low-fat or regular, do not use fat-free)
1/2 cup sour cream (low-fat or regular, do not use fat-free)
1/4 cup minced green onion
1/4 cup freshly grated parmesan cheese (if you only have finely grated Parmesan, use a bit less)
6 slices bacon, cooked until very crisp, fat blotted with paper towel and then crumbled
1 cup sharp cheddar cheese (I used Kraft 2% milk sharp cheddar, but use the cheese you prefer as long as it's sharp cheddar)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350F/180°C.
  • Cut out stem and core from cauliflower, and cut into small pieces.
  • Cook in large pot of boiling salted water until cauliflower is tender, but not overly soft.
  • Drain well and mash with potato masher, leaving some chunks.
  • Mix in cream cheese, sour cream, green onion, Parmesan, and 3/4 of the crumbled bacon.
  • Spread evenly in a medium-sized glass casserole dish.
  • Sprinkle with cheddar cheese and reserved bacon.
  • Bake 30-35 minutes, or until hot and bubbly.
