Instructions

  1. If using a head of cauliflower, rice it first. If using frozen, thaw it out completely and ring out any excess water.
  2. Heat a large skillet over medium heat; once hot, melt the butter. Add the garlic and sauté for a minute until toasted and fragrant. 
  3. To the skillet, add the salt and cauliflower rice and stir. Cook for about 5 minutes until softened.
  4. Add the cream cheese to the middle of the pan and begin to melt it slowly into the cauliflower. Add the cheddar cheese, and combine. Slowly add a tablespoon of water at a time to the pan to help give the melted cheeses a sauce-like texture. Once the cheesy mixture has been incorporated into the cauliflower rice, turn off the heat.
  5. Sprinkle chopped bacon bits over the top and finely chopped chives, if using.
