Keto Cheesy Cauliflower “Mashed Potato” Casserole
Ingredients List
- 2 (10-oz) bags microwaveable cauliflower rice
- 1 cup grated cheddar cheese, divided
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 4 oz cream cheese, at room temperature
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 2 Tbsp butter or ghee
- 1/2 tsp sea salt
- 1/4 tsp freshly ground pepper
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 2 Tbsp crispy-cooked bacon crumbles
- 1 Tbsp chopped green onion
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (165°C). Following the package directions, microwave the cauliflower packages one at a time until hot throughout, usually 3 to 4 minutes. Working quickly, in a mixing bowl combine the hot cauliflower, half of the cheddar cheese, and all of the Parmesan cheese, cream cheese, sour cream, and butter. Stir until melted and combined. Stir in the garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
- Spread mixture into a 9 by 9-inch (10-cup / 2.5-quart) casserole dish, sprinkle the remaining cheddar cheese over the top and bake, uncovered, until the cheese is hot and bubbly, about 20 minutes. Sprinkle the bacon and green onion on top, and serve.

This is our go-to family side. It’s so good and filling, it can almost be a meal by itself! Delicious!
So good! I tried it in the bag for lunch, and it was so fast and easy. Satisfied my hunger for the whole day too!
This dish is just delicious! Everybody loved it!
This recipe is on point. Delicious.
I am NOT a fan of cauliflower at all. This recipe is amazing and yummy. I follow this recipe to a T minus the bacon. I put it in a square pan so I can have individual ones to freeze and throw them in the microwave and go to work. I also have this for breakfast by itself lots of times.
I have made this countless times! It’s a great side dish and has sometimes been a quick meal because I love it so much. I added blue cheese to mine and some herbs. YUM!!
Amazing!
This was an extremely good potato substitute! I’ll even have it for breakfast with my eggs!
