Loaded Cauliflower Au Gratin

:Loaded Cauliflower Au Gratin is a delicious dish that takes cauliflower to a whole new level! It's a twist on the classic potatoes au gratin, but instead of potatoes, it uses cauliflower. The cauliflower is cooked until tender, then mixed with a creamy cheese sauce, topped with crispy bacon bits, green onions, and more cheese before being baked until golden and bubbly.

Instructions

Place top oven rack in the center position and preheat oven to 400°F.
Place the cauliflower in a steamer basket on top of a pot with boiling water and steam until fork-tender, around 6-7 minutes. Remove from heat and transfer cauliflower into a cold water bath to prevent further cooking. Drain well and pat dry.
Transfer steamed cauliflower to a large bowl and add cream cheese, heavy cream, butter, garlic powder, and dried dill. Season with salt and black pepper, to taste, and toss to combine.
Transfer to oven-safe casserole dish and top with shredded cheese blend and crumbled bacon. Place in pre-heated oven and roast until cheese is melted and nicely browned on top, around 8-10 minutes.
Remove from oven and serve immediately topped with fresh chives. Enjoy!
