Number Of Ingredients 10

Ingredients

1 tablespoon butter
6 cups cooked cauliflower florets, drained
salt and ground black pepper to taste
1 clove garlic, minced
1 (4 ounce) package garlic and herb cheese spread (such as Boursin®)
1 cup half-and-half
⅓ cup grated Parmesan cheese
1 cup French fried onions
⅓ cup sliced almonds
2 strips cooked bacon, crumbled

Steps:

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Butter an 11x7-inch oven-proof casserole dish.
Place cooked, drained cauliflower florets into the prepared casserole dish and season with salt and pepper.
Melt butter in a small skillet over medium heat. Add garlic and cook and stir until fragrant, 1 to 2 minutes. Cut cheese into 1/2-inch cubes and add to skillet. Gently move cheese around the skillet until it starts to melt, 2 to 3 minutes. Add half-and-half and whisk until well blended, 1 to 2 minutes.
Stir in Parmesan cheese and remove from heat. Pour cheese mixture over cauliflower florets. Top with French fried onions, almonds, and crumbled bacon.
Bake in the pre-heated oven until bubbly, about 20 minutes.
