Ingredients
- 1 medium head cauliflower
- ½ cup buffalo sauce, divided
- ¼ cup heavy cream
- 2 ounces cream cheese
- 1 cup grated cheddar cheese
- ⅓ cup grated monterey jack cheese
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon cracked pepper

- 2 tablespoons chopped green onions
- Ranch or blue cheese dressing, for serving
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray a 9x9 baking dish with non-stick spray.
- Chop the cauliflower into small pieces, about the size of macaroni noodles.
- Bring a pot of water to a boil. Add the cauliflower and boil for 4 minutes.
- Drain the water and return the cauliflower to the pot over low heat.
- Add ¼ cup of buffalo sauce, cream, cream cheese, cheddar, Monterey jack, salt, and pepper and stir well until the cheese has melted fully, about 3 minutes.
- Add the chicken and remaining buffalo sauce to a small bowl and toss to coat. Combine with the cauliflower mixture.
- Spread mixture into the prepared baking dish and bake for 15 minutes, or until hot and bubbly.
- Sprinkle with green onions and drizzle with ranch or blue cheese dressing before serving.
Notes
I normally purchase already chopped cauliflower in the produce section of the grocery store. A 1 pound bag is perfect for this recipe.
