Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 cups Shredded chicken (cooked)
- 1 cup Buffalo sauce
- 1 cup Ranch dressing
- 8 ounces Cream cheese (softened)
- 2 cups Cheddar cheese (shredded)
- 1 cup Mozzarella cheese (shredded)
- 4 cups Cauliflower florets (bite-sized)
- 2 tablespoons Green onions (sliced)
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Lightly grease a 9x13-inch casserole dish with olive oil or cooking spray and set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded chicken, buffalo sauce, ranch dressing, and softened cream cheese. Stir until evenly mixed.
Steam or blanch the cauliflower florets for 5 minutes, then drain well. Toss the cauliflower with olive oil, salt, and black pepper.
Spread the prepped cauliflower florets evenly across the bottom of the casserole dish.
Pour the buffalo chicken mixture over the cauliflower, spreading it evenly.
Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese and mozzarella cheese on top of the casserole.
Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly, and the casserole is heated through.
Remove from the oven and let rest for 5-10 minutes.
Garnish with sliced green onions before serving for a pop of color and flavor.
