Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 head cauliflower (cut into florets)
  • 1 lb ground beef
  • 1 cup cheddar cheese (shredded)
  • 1/2 cup cream cheese
  • 1/2 cup beef broth
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp onion powder
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 tbsp butter

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Bring a large pot of water to a gentle boil, add cauliflower florets and cook for 5‑7 minutes until tender but firm; drain and set aside.
  3. Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat, add ground beef and brown for 6‑8 minutes, draining excess fat.
  4. Reduce heat to low, stir in cream cheese until melted, then add beef broth, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper; cook 2‑3 minutes until sauce is smooth and begins to thicken.
  5. Return the cooked cauliflower to the skillet and toss to coat evenly with the beef and sauce.
  6. Transfer the mixture to a greased 9‑x‑13‑inch baking dish, sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese over the top, and bake for 15‑20 minutes until bubbly and golden.
  7. Remove from oven and let rest for 5 minutes before serving.

Notes

  • For extra spice
  • add red pepper flakes with the beef. Use full‑fat cheeses for best texture. Leftovers reheat well in microwave or oven. Nutrition information not provided.
