Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 head cauliflower
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoons sea salt
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
- 1 cup cheddar cheese, shredded
- 0.5 cup sour cream
- 4 strips bacon, cooked and crumbled
- 2 tablespoons green onions, chopped
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Cut the cauliflower into bite-sized florets and spread them out on the prepared baking sheet.
Drizzle the olive oil over the cauliflower and sprinkle with sea salt and black pepper. Toss to coat evenly.
Roast the cauliflower in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until tender and golden brown, stirring halfway through.
While the cauliflower is roasting, prepare the toppings. In a bowl, mix together the shredded cheddar cheese, sour cream, crumbled bacon, and chopped green onions.
Once the cauliflower is roasted, remove from the oven and let cool slightly.
Transfer the roasted cauliflower to a serving dish. Top with the cheese mixture.
Return the dish to the oven for an additional 5 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Garnish with extra crumbled bacon and chopped green onions, if desired, before serving.
