Best Cauliflower Mac and Cheese Recipe

Ingredients

1/2 teaspoon kosher salt

1 large head cauliflower, cut into bite-size pieces

1 cup heavy cream

2 ounces cream cheese

2 teaspoons Dijon mustard

2 cups shredded sharp cheddar, divided (reserve 1/2 cup for topping)

1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

1/8 teaspoon garlic powder

Instructions

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
• Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Season the water with salt.

• Remove from heat, pour over the cauliflower, and stir to combine.
• Top with the remaining 1/2 cup cheese and bake until browned and bubbly, about 15 minutes.
• Allow to cool about 5 minutes then serve.
