Cauliflower Mac and Cheese
From: Leigh @ www.dontsweattherecipe.com/cauliflower-mac-cheese/
This is Creamy, cheesy and indulgent. Even the pickiest kid will like this dish. And the reluctant adult not on a keto diet (my husband) will request this side dish on a regular basis. This recipe even fits a gluten-free diet!
Prep time: 10 min
Cook time: 20 min
Total time: 30 min
Servings: 4
Ingredients
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1 large head cauliflower, cut into bite-size pieces
1 cup heavy cream
2 ounces cream cheese
2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
2 cups shredded sharp cheddar, divided (reserve 1/2 cup for topping)
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/8 teaspoon garlic powder
Instructions
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Season the water with salt.
Spray an 8x8 baking dish with vegetable oil spray.
Cook the cauliflower in the boiling water until crisp-tender, about 5 minutes.
Drain well and place back into the hot pot for a few minutes.
Transfer the cauliflower to the baking dish and set aside.
Bring the cream to a simmer in a small saucepan over medium heat, and whisk in the cream cheese and mustard until smooth.
Stir in 1 1/2 cups of the cheese, salt, pepper, and garlic and whisk just until the cheese melts about 1 to 2 minutes.
Salt and pepper to taste.
Remove from heat, pour over the cauliflower, and stir to combine.
Top with the remaining 1/2 cup cheese and bake until browned and bubbly, about 15 minutes.
Allow to cool about 5 minutes then serve.
