Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams cauliflower florets
- 200 grams fresh spinach
- 2 pieces garlic cloves, minced
- 120 milliliters heavy cream
- 60 grams cream cheese
- 100 grams shredded mozzarella cheese
- 30 grams grated Parmesan cheese
- 15 grams butter
- 15 milliliters olive oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoon nutmeg (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 190°C (375°F).
Bring a large pot of salted water to boil and add the cauliflower florets. Cook for about 6-8 minutes or until tender. Drain and set aside.
In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
Add the fresh spinach to the skillet and cook until wilted, about 2-3 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.
In a medium saucepan, combine the heavy cream, cream cheese, and butter. Heat over low-medium heat, stirring constantly until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
Season the creamy mixture with salt, black pepper, and nutmeg if using. Stir in the grated Parmesan cheese and half of the shredded mozzarella cheese. Continue stirring until melted and creamy.
In a large bowl, combine the cooked cauliflower and sautéed spinach. Pour the creamy cheese sauce over the top and mix until evenly coated.
Transfer the mixture to a greased baking dish. Sprinkle the remaining shredded mozzarella cheese evenly on top.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the top is golden and bubbly.
Remove from the oven and let the dish sit for 3-5 minutes before serving. Enjoy your low-carb spinach cauli dish!
