This is one of my favorite keto recipes, keto twice baked cauliflower casserole. I make it at least once a week and my husband and daughter love it. You can use it as a side dish, or as a meal on it’s own. I also make this whenever I feel like a craving for mash potatoes and it really hits the spot!

The cauliflower is cooked 2 ways. First it’s boiled to soften it, and after that it’s baked with all kinds of yummy ingredients. As a result you get a creamy, flavorful casserole that your family will devour. Think of everything you’d put on a loaded mashed potato and it’s in this casserole!

Start by frying 6 slices of bacon. You can use Bacon Bits if you want to take a shortcut. Once the bacon is done, chop into small pieces. Meanwhile as the bacon fries, boil a pot of water and add salt. Next, cut the stem and core from the cauliflower and disregard. After that, chop the remaining cauliflower into small pieces, and add to the boiling salted water. Allow to cook for 15-20 minutes. Drain well.

In a large mixing bowl, add cream cheese, sour cream, green onions, parmesan cheese and 4 pieces of chopped fully cooked bacon. If you want a creamier consistency, you can add the optional heavy whipping cream as well. Add the drained cauliflower and use a potato masher or mixing whisk to get to the desired consistency. Spread it into a casserole dish, top with cheddar cheese and remaining bacon. Bake 15-20 minutes, and this hearty keto twice baked cauliflower casserole is ready!
