JennyMac's Lipsmack
- 1 bag (14 oz) frozen cauliflower
- 2 cups cheese, shredded (I used half sharp and half 2%)
- ½ c. egg substitute
- 1/4 cup milk/cream or Fat Free evaporated milk
- 1/2 tsp. salt
- 1/2 tsp. white pepper
- TOPPING:
- 1 c. bread crumbs
- 1/2c. French’s onion rings, crushed
- ½ tsp. garlic powder
- ½ tsp. salt
- ½ tsp. pepper
- 1 Tbsp. butter
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Place bag of cauliflower in microwave and cook at 1 minute intervals until hot (rotating and turning over with each-took me about 4 intervals) Drain in colander and cool slightly.
In medium mixing bowl, add cheese(s) egg substitute, milk and seasoning. Mix well.
In a small bowl, mix ingredients for topping. Mix well.
Chop cauliflower into pieces that would resemble the size of elbow macaroni (I used a pair of kitchen shears in bowl). Add to egg cheese mixture and mix well.
Place cauliflower mixture into greased 1 quart casserole and top with bread crumb mixture.
Bake for 30 minutes until firm and bread crumbs are browned.
Lipsmacking Notes:
Very yummy! If you are going for the lower carbs, omit the crumbs. K-man loved it and he's the picky one about his Mac and Cheese!Enjoy!
