Loaded Cauliflower Pizza Mac & Cheese With Bacon

recipes Dec 13, 2017

This dish was surprisingly so good considering the “mac and cheese” was made out of cauliflower! Markus and I have been on a roll with creating fun new recipes every Friday night and decided to whip this one up when I found an awesome recipe on Pinterest. I hope you love the recipe as much as we did!

 

Ingredients

  • 1/2 pound bacon, thinly sliced
  • 2 heads cauliflower
  • 1/2 cup full-fat coconut milk
  • 1/2 cup nutritional yeast
  • 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon finely chopped fresh chives
  • Flavor God Pizza seasoning

 

Instructions

  1. In a wide soup pot or heavy-bottomed saucepan, cook the bacon over medium-high heat until crispy.
  2. Using a slotted spoon, scoop the bacon into a bowl. Drain off most of the fat remaining in the pan, but don't wipe the pan down.
  3. While the bacon is cooking, cut the cauliflower florets away from the stems. (You should have 6 cups of florets.)
  4. Steam the cauliflower by placing the cauliflower in a large microwavable bowl with 1/4 cup water.
  5. Cover and microwave on high for 5 minutes, or until the cauliflower is fork tender.
  6. Transfer the steamed cauliflower to the pot you used to cook the bacon.
  7. Add the remaining ingredients, except the chives, and stir to combine. Stir in half of the bacon and transfer to a serving dish.
  8. Garnish with the remaining bacon and the chives. Serve warm.
  9. Sprinkle on Flavor God Pizza seasoning to your liking. Serve warm.
