In a large pot of boiling water, place cauliflower in a steamer basket; cook 8 to 10 minutes or until tender. Drain well.
In a large bowl, combine cauliflower, sour cream, 1 cup cheese, half the scallions, half the bacon, and the pepper; mix well. Spoon mixture into prepared baking dish and sprinkle with remaining cheese.

Hello! This can be prepared in a slowcooker. It will probably take 2 to 3 hours on high heat, or 4 to 5 hours on low heat. Hope this helps!

This is very good. Will make again. Used sweet onion as that is what I had on hand. Live alone but this keeps well in refrigerator and is good when reheated.

I have not yet made this Loaded Cauliflower Casserole but I definitely plan on adding the ingredients to my shopping list. I have always loved raw cauliflower but never liked it as a cooked plain side dish , so I am happy to try something that includes two of my favourite foods, cheese and bacon. One question, can you make this up and then freeze it? I am all about freezable casseroles!

Hi there! This can definitely be frozen, but be aware it may be a little watery after thawing.

I made this for a Maundy Thursday church dinner and it was a big hit. However, it does not serve 10 people. 8 at best. I will be keeping this recipe.

I've been told to stay away from pork so I used portobello mushrooms that added a nutty smoked flavor. Plus with my high blood pressure, I cut salt where ever I can.

It looks good. I have to try it and it's really low carbs but seems full of flavor with the bacon and pepper. I just started seeing uncured bacon without nitrates at my grocery store, so I will be using that.
