Cheesy Cauliflower Casserole

Ingredients:

For the Cauliflower:

• 1 medium Head of cauliflower, cut into small florets

• 2 tablespoons Butter

• 1 cup Heavy cream

• 1 cup Cheddar cheese, shredded (or a blend of your favorite cheeses)

• 1/2 cup Gruyere cheese, grated

• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder

• 1 teaspoon Onion powder

• Salt and pepper, to taste

  
  

  For the Topping:

• 1 cup crushed Sea Salt and Cracked Black Pepper Pork Rinds

• 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese

• 2 tablespoons Butter, melted

• 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning (optional)

Directions:

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

2. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the cauliflower florets and cook for about 5 minutes, or until just tender. Drain and set aside.

3. In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Stir in the heavy cream, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper.

4. Gradually add the shredded cheddar and gruyere cheeses, stirring continuously until the cheese has melted and the sauce is smooth.

5. In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked cauliflower with the cheese sauce, ensuring all the florets are well coated.

6. Pour the cauliflower mixture into a greased baking dish, spreading it evenly.

7. In a small bowl, mix the crushed pork rinds, grated parmesan cheese, melted butter, and Italian seasoning until combined.

8. Sprinkle the pork rind mixture evenly over the cauliflower casserole.

9. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and crispy.

10. Remove from the oven and let it cool slightly before serving.

11. Enjoy!
