Ingredients
- 4 slices bacon
- 1 large head cauliflower
- 4 oz sour cream
- 2 Tbsp butter
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp onion powder
- salt & pepper (to taste)
- 1 cup grated cheddar cheese
- 2 Tbsp chopped fresh chives
Instructions
- Fry bacon in a pan until crisp, then set aside to drain.
- Prepare a steamer. I use a large soup pot with a removable metal steamer and add ~1" water to the bottom of the pot. Cut the cauliflower into florets and add to the steamer. Turn to medium high heat and steam approximately 5 minutes once water starts boiling, until cauliflower is fork-tender.
- Add the steamed cauliflower to a bowl, and mash using a fork or potato masher. Alternatively, use a food processor for smoother mash.
- Mix sour cream and butter into the mash until evenly melted. Season with garlic powder, onion powder, and salt and pepper to taste.
- Chop the chives, and add the majority to the mash, reserving some for topping. Crumble the bacon and add it to the mash. Add in the cheese, and mix until combined.
- Top with remaining cheese and broil 2 minutes on high or until cheese is melted and bubbly.
- Sprinkle with remaining crumbled bacon and chives and serve warm.
