Loaded Cauliflower Casserole is a low carb, delicious alternative to loaded potato casserole. You'll want this easy baked cauliflower casserole in regular rotation after you taste how good it is!
Preheat your oven to 325°F and spray a 2 quart casserole dish with non-stick spray. Set aside.
Wash your cauliflower and break it up into small pieces. (I usually chop it in half then break up the florets by hand). Add them to a medium saucepan with 1 cup of water. Cook over medium heat for 8 minutes or until fork tender.
1 medium cauliflower, 1 cup water
Drain and return to the saucepan.
To the cooked cauliflower, add the sour cream, cheddar cheese, panko, salt, pepper, and onion. Gently mix.
1 cup sour cream, 1 cup cheddar cheese + more for topping, 3/4 cup panko bread crumbs, 1/4 cup onion, 1.5 teaspoons salt, 1 teaspoon black pepper
Spread the mixture into your prepared casserole dish.
Sprinkle with more shredded cheddar cheese.
Bake, uncovered, for 25 minutes.
Top with chopped bacon.
1 strip crisp bacon
Notes
If you don't have fresh cauliflower, frozen will work. Just steam it in the microwave, drain any liquid, then continue the steps.
