So I decided to try a few cauliflower recipes to expand my low carb horzions and on the second try I found this little gem! This bake reminds me of augratin potatos or scalloped potatoes. I ended up eating this with my toy salsa and it was excellent! I hope you enjoy it as well!A note: I used a 1 pound ham steak which was about 1/3 the price per pound as the other ham AND just the right size when chopped into cubes.
Ingredients:
2 lbs cauliflower
2 lbs ham
8 oz cheddar cheese
1 cup heavy cream
2 eggs beaten
Start by breaking the cauliflower up into manageable floret size. Think broccoli florets. steaming/boiling the cauliflower. I enjoy steaming as it is easy and has little mess but whatever you want to do is fine here. The cauliflower does not have to be completely steamed as it will continue to cook when baking. Next, mash up the cauliflower slightly. Think macaroni size, maybe a little bigger, seems to be the best texture. Beat the eggs and mix with the cream. Mix everything together and put in a baking dish.
If your cauliflower is still hot cook on 375 for 30 minutes - I like to add some cheese on top at the end and give it five minutes to melt, this is up to you.
If you let the cauliflower cool down cook on 375 for 45 minutes.
Enjoy!
