Assembly Directions:
In large bowl, microwave cauliflower until soft, about 5-6 minutes. Drain and mash a bit. Add softened cream cheese, cheddar cheese, chopped onions, salt and pepper and fried bacon. Put mixture into sprayed 8x8 baking pan or 2 quart casserole. Bake at 350 degrees for 20-30 minutes.
Freezing Directions:
Allow to cool. Freeze in pan or in smaller freezer containers. If using pans, place pans in freezer bag or cover with foil. Seal, label and freeze.
Serving Directions:
Thaw. Warm in 350 degree oven 15-20 minutes or in the microwave 8-10 minutes.
Comments:
I was skeptical the first time that I made this and never expected it to curb my potato craving but it did! I freeze the casserole in small portions for myself. 2 minutes in the microwave and I have a hot, bubbly low carb treat!
For South Beach, use low fat cheeses and turkey bacon. Low fat cream cheese can be purchased and 1 T. of chopped chives (fresh or frozen) added.
