Scrambled Cauliflower - Low Carb

I got this recipe and it wasn't low carb and included breadcrumbs instead of Parmesan cheese so you could form patties (like a latke). Since I'm living a low-carb lifestyle, I decided to adapt it, but the patties were less-than-desirable visually the taste wasn't that impressive. I had one completely fall apart on me in the pan so I just scrambled it up and viola; we had a new fave! You can add bacon and garlic as a yummy addition, if desired.

Ingredients

• 2 tablespoons butter
• ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
• ½ cup shredded Cheddar cheese
• 2 large eggs, beaten
• ½ teaspoon cayenne pepper, or to taste
• 1 head cauliflower, cut into florets
• ¼ teaspoon salt, or to taste

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Place cauliflower into a large pot and cover with water; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until tender, 7 to 10 minutes. Drain.

Step 2

Mash cauliflower in a bowl until smooth. Beat Cheddar cheese, Parmesan cheese, eggs, cayenne pepper, and salt into cauliflower.

Step 3

Melt butter in a skillet over medium-high heat. Pour cauliflower mixture into hot butter and cook until golden, about 5 minutes. Flip cauliflower mixture; cook and stir until mixture is more crumbly than creamy, about 10 minutes more.
