Description

A delicious low-carb side dish featuring creamy cream cheese and cheesy cheddar.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 (20oz) bag frozen cauliflower rice (or 45 cups)
  • 1 tbsp butter
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
  • 2 oz cream cheese (about 4 tbsps)
  • Salt, pepper, and garlic to taste

Instructions

  1. Microwave the cauliflower rice according to the package directions, shaving off a few minutes since it will be further cooked in a pan.
  2. Melt about 1 tbsp of butter in a sauté pan on medium heat.
  3. Add the mostly cooked cauliflower rice to the pan and stir with the butter, seasoning to taste with about 1/2 tsp of garlic powder and a little salt and pepper.
  4. Combine the milk, cheddar cheese, and cream cheese in the pan and lower the heat to medium-low; mix everything until melted and well incorporated.

Notes

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to three days. For a creamier texture when reheating, add a splash of milk.
