Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 6 servings

  • 1 head cauliflower, coarsely chopped

  • 1 (4 ounce) package cream cheese, softened

  • ¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese

  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder

  • salt and ground black pepper to taste

  • ¼ cup shredded Cheddar cheese, or as needed

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

  2. Place a steamer insert into a saucepan and fill with water to just below the bottom of the steamer. Bring water to a boil. Add cauliflower, cover, and steam until tender, 5 to 10 minutes. Transfer cauliflower to a bowl.

  3. Mash cauliflower with cream cheese until smooth; stir in Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Spoon mixture into a 1-quart casserole dish; top with Cheddar cheese.

  4. Bake in the preheated oven until bubbling and Cheddar cheese is melted, 10 to 15 minutes.
