No Carb Spinach, Bacon, and Cauliflower Gratin

Prep Time: 15 minutes
Cook Time: 30 minutes
Total Time: 45 minutes
Yield: 6 servings
This Spinach, Bacon, and Cauliflower Gratin has no flour in the roux, making it perfect for gluten free and low carb folks. You're practically eating mac and cheese.

Ingredients
 

  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1/2 tsp cracked black pepper
  • 3 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese
  • 1/2 cup shredded sharp white cheddar cheese
  • 1 head cauliflower, cut into bite-sized florets
  • 3 cups spinach
  • 10 pieces cooked bacon, torn into chunks
  • Chopped green onions and extra shredded cheese to garnish, optional

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
  • In a cold, large, oven-safe skillet, pour in the heavy cream. Turn the heat to medium low. Stir in the pepper.
  • Once the cream is warm, add the cheese one half cup at a time, stirring for about 15 seconds between additions. Continue to stir until cheese is completely melted through. You may need to turn the heat up a bit.
  • Once melted, add the florets, spinach, and bacon. Stir until the veggies are completely coated in the sauce.
  • Transfer skillet to preheated oven and cook for 30 minutes, until cauliflower is tender.
  • Optional: top with additional cheese and broil until golden brown. Garnish with chopped green onions.
