Low-Carb Cheesy Cauliflower

Low-Carb Cheesy Cauliflower
 
Here's a veggie recipe for ya. Not my favorite honestly, but maybe with some tweaking, it could work out. It tasted "fine" and of course I ate it though! I wouldn't make it like so again, but I still love cheesy cauliflower!
 

 
Ingredients
  1. 1 head of cauliflower
  2. 3 c of shredded cheese
  3. 6 tbsp of butter
  4. 1/2 c of heavy cream
  5. 3 cloves of minced garlic
  6. 1 tbsp of fresh thyme (or another seasoning)
  7. salt and pepper
Ready for the oven
 
Directions
  1. Preheat over to 400 degrees.
  2. Boil cauliflower until soft.
  3. Melt butter and mix in heavy cream and garlic.
  4. Once cauliflower is soft, place into a Pyrex bowl and pour butter mixture over it. Mix all the ingredients together.
  5. Sprinkle with thyme and cheese.
  6. Bake for 30 mins, until golden brown!


All done

So, as you can see, the bowl is filled with oil from the butter, not super appealing. Personally, I don't think this recipe needed 6 tbsp of butter, so I'll definitely try it again with just 2 tbsp. I'd also add some "actual" seasoning, not thyme. The flavor was lacking so I ended up adding salt and pepper when I went to eat it. I ate this dish as leftovers too and it reheated fine.

Ladies and Gents, if you try this recipe, let me know how it works out for you!


Not giving up!!
