Directions

Prep 10 minCook 25 min
  1. 1

    Cook the bacon in a skillet until crisp. Set aside on a paper towel to drain, then crumble.

  2. 2

    Fill a large pot with water and bring to a boil. Add the cauliflower and garlic, then boil until the cauliflower is soft, about 15-20 minutes. Drain and return to the pot.

  3. 3

    Preheat the oven to 350°F.

  4. 4

    Add the buttermilk, butter, salt, and pepper to the cauliflower and purée with a hand blender. If you don't have a hand blender, a regular blender will work.

  5. 5

    Mix in 1 tablespoon of the chives and transfer the mixture to four individual casseroles (3/4 cup each) or one 8x8 casserole dish. Top with cheddar cheese and crumbled bacon. Bake in the oven until the cheese melts, about 5 minutes. Top with remaining chives and serve.
