Cauliflower & Cheese Bake

Step 1

Prepare all ingredients as indicated above. Preheat the oven to 200C / 392F and locate a roasting dish of approx 20cm x 20cm. Size isn't too important here.

Step 2

Steam the cauliflower in the microwave until soft (see note).

Step 3

While the cauliflower is steaming, add the olive oil to a large frying pan and put over medium heat. Add the bacon, onion and crushed garlic and fry until the bacon is just crispy and the onion translucent.

Step 4

In a small bowl, mix the cream cheese, sour cream, salt and pepper. Don't be too concerned if there's a few lumps of cream cheese.

Step 5

Add half the grated cheese to the cream cheese sauce and stir to combine.

Step 6

Combine the cauliflower, cooked bacon and cream cheese sauce in your roasting dish and distribute evenly. Sprinkle the remaining 1/2 cup cheese on top.

Step 7

Bake in the oven for 10 - 12 minutes until lightly crispy on top.
