My latest low carb cauliflower creation is this Low Carb Creamy Green Chili Cauliflower Casserole. You could always substitute the chili peppers with jalapeno pepper to get more of a bite. I used green chili peppers because my husband does not like his food to spicy so this is the only reason I used them. I would have been all over the jalapeno peppers if it weren’t for him. So you can choose either one, they both are delicious.
I love this casserole with a side of salad or you can cook up any kind of meat and eat the Low Carb Creamy Casserole as the side.
You can also freeze this, either in a casserole dish or in portion sizes.
So lets get started and I will show you how to make it!
1 head of steamed cauliflower
8 oz cream cheese
1/2 cup mayonnaise

1/4 cup green chilies (Old E Paso) or jalapeno peppers
