6 cups cauliflower cut into bite-sized pieces Fresh cauliflower is recommended, but frozen can be used.
8 oz cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup sour cream Can substitute with Greek yogurt for a healthier option.
1 tsp seasoned salt
1 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp onion powder
1/4 tsp black pepper
1 cup bacon, cooked and crumbled, divided Can substitute with turkey bacon for a lighter dish.
1 cup green onions, diced, divided
2 cups colby jack cheese, shredded, divided Feel free to use any cheese of your choice.

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Lightly coat a 9x13 casserole dish with non-stick spray and set it aside.
Steam the cauliflower for about 10 minutes until it is fork tender. Drain any excess water and place the cauliflower on paper towels to absorb extra moisture.
In a large bowl, combine the cream cheese, sour cream, seasoned salt, garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, 3/4 cup of bacon, and 3/4 cup of green onions. Stir until smooth.
Add the steamed cauliflower and 1 1/2 cups of shredded cheese to the mixture and stir to combine.
Pour the mixture into the prepared casserole dish and spread it into an even layer.
Top with the remaining shredded cheese and crumbled bacon.

Bake uncovered for 20 minutes or until the cheese is bubbly and melted throughout.
Remove from the oven and garnish with the remaining green onions.

Serve hot as a side or main dish. Pairs well with grilled meats or a fresh salad. Can also serve with extra green onions or a dollop of sour cream.
