This Cauliflower Cheese Bread Recipe is an easy vegetarian side dish that is made with only 3 main ingredients along with some seasonings.
This morning, I scratched my head trying to find a vegetarian dish to go with my Crispy Chicken Patties, and I remembered this recipe that I used to make a long time ago when I was following a low-carb diet.
This dish is amazing. I can't recommend it enough. Today, I will share with you my old vegetarian dish that is AMAZING with almost any meat dish.
Ingredients
- Cauliflower head: I cut it into small florets.
- Cheddar cheese: I love to grate my own cheese at home.
- Eggs: I use 2 large eggs.
- Seasonings: I use black pepper, garlic powder, chilli powder, Italian seasoning, dry basil and salt.
How to Make Cauliflower Cheese Bread Recipe
One: Preheat the oven to 180°C/ 356°F. Grease a loaf tin with oil or butter.
Two: Cut the cauliflower into small florets and put them in the food processor, blitz until you have cauliflower rice (photos 1 & 2).
Three: Microwave the cauliflower rice for 4 minutes and leave it to cool for 5-10 minutes (photos 3 & 4).
Four: Place the cauliflower rice in a cheesecloth and wring dry (you can make that on batches).
Five: Add the eggs, all the spices and half of cheddar cheese to the cauliflower rice. Then mix using a spatula (photos 5 & 6).
Six: Now, add half of the cauliflower rice mixture in the loaf pan then add a layer of cheddar cheese on top of it then add the rest of the mixture and spread evenly (photos 7 & 8 & 9).
Seven: Add the last layer of the remaining cheddar cheese. Bake for 30-35 minutes (photos 10 & 11).
Eight: Then, remove the cauliflower cheese bread from the oven and garnish with some dry parsley (optional). Serve hot or cool (photos 12).
