Loaded Cauliflower Casserole

Loaded Cauliflower Casserole is a hearty low carb/keto diet-friendly dish. It’s made with steamed and roasted cauliflower packed with cheesy and bacon goodness.  

I’m sure you’ve had a loaded baked potato filled with sour cream, cheese, bacon, and onions. Well, think loaded baked potato filling with cauliflower. Bite-sized pieces of cauliflower covered in cheese and bacon and smothered in sour cream – it really doesn’t get any better. And I’m speaking the truth because I’m not much of a cauliflower lover, but my husband loves it. After tasting this recipe, I think I’m becoming more of a cauliflower person myself.

A colleague gave me this recipe over a year ago. I actually made it right away a couple of times after that and everyone loved it, but I just never got around to sharing it on my blog. Not sure what took me so long, but I’m happy to share it now. And I’ll thank my colleague, Doug, next time I talk to him from you all because I know you’re going to love it too!

What to serve with this Loaded Cauliflower

This is the perfect dish to eat alone or serve it as a side dish. My husband actually likes to eat this alone as a hearty dinner. But here are some other ways to serve it:

1. This dish goes great with baked ham. You could also add pieces of diced ham to the recipe and have a Loaded Ham and Cauliflower Casserole.
2. It goes well with chicken and turkey; it would be a great side dish for Thanksgiving.
3. Think meat and potatoes, but actually meat and cauliflower! Serve it with a roast or with pork chops.
4. Think breakfast. If you’re not doing a low-carb or keto diet, add a slice of toast and you have a great Sunday morning breakfast or brunch.
