I know that I’m a low carb food blogger and if there is one thing I should be used to, it’s that cauliflower is magic and can basically do anything.

I’m still amazed at how well it works with just about every flavor in all manner of recipes.  Whether I’m using it in my low carb chicken casserole or my cauliflower mac and cheese, my kids gobble it up, Chad asks me to repeat the recipe, and I’m left like, y’all, you know that’s cauliflower right?! 😉 

After testing out this chicken broccoli alfredo casserole a few times, I think I’ve found my family’s newest dinner obsession.

“Can you make that chicken broccoli alfredo thing again with the cauliflower rice?” 

Yes. Yes, I can. 

Ingredients for chicken alfredo casserole: 

You’re going to just need a few simple ingredients for this casserole. For the full recipe and amounts, scroll down to the recipe card.

• Chicken – cooked and diced or shredded
• Broccoli – we always prefer fresh over frozen
• Cauliflower Rice – frozen works fine
• Keto Alfredo Sauce – it’s just a handful of ingredients and so easy!
• Mozzarella
• Seasonings

It doesn’t get much simpler than this!

Method:

1. Steam the broccoli and cauliflower rice. Drain any excess liquid.
2. Stir all of the ingredients except for the mozzarella together and put in a baking dish.
3. Sprinkle the top with mozzarella and bake!

I mean, how much simpler does it get than that?? 

This chicken broccoli alfredo recipe comes together so quickly and it’s seriously so good! Who can resist Alfredo sauce?! 

Tips & Tricks:

If you have leftover, cooked chicken, feel free to use it here! We often season a bunch of chicken breasts with Tony Chachere’s (affiliate link – this is our favorite seasoning blend for basically everything!) and cook in a skillet with a tiny bit of oil. We eat those chicken breasts all week long and use it in recipes like this.

Using the ‘steam in bag’ type of frozen cauliflower rice works great. You can also use frozen broccoli if you like it…my whole family is just picky and we LOVE fresh broccoli, but kind of hate frozen broccoli. They’re basically two different foods, if you haven’t tried both fresh and frozen. 😉 

You certainly could use a jar of Alfredo sauce if you wanted to cut time, but my homemade version is quick, easy, and is made with real ingredients. Highly recommend it, if you have the 5 minutes it takes to stir together. 

Serve this up with a side salad with my homemade Italian dressing.

We love serving up this cauliflower risotto, cauliflower potato salad, and loaded cauliflower casserole as a side with just about anything. Same goes for these cauliflower tots!

My keto cauliflower soup is always a hit on a chilly night.
