I really want to try this,but have no oven or microwave , can it be fixed in a slow cooker?

Hello! This can be prepared in a slowcooker. It will probably take 2 to 3 hours on high heat, or 4 to 5 hours on low heat. Hope this helps!

This is very good. Will make again. Used sweet onion as that is what I had on hand. Live alone but this keeps well in refrigerator and is good when reheated.

I have not yet made this Loaded Cauliflower Casserole but I definitely plan on adding the ingredients to my shopping list. I have always loved raw cauliflower but never liked it as a cooked plain side dish , so I am happy to try something that includes two of my favourite foods, cheese and bacon. One question, can you make this up and then freeze it? I am all about freezable casseroles!

Hi there! This can definitely be frozen, but be aware it may be a little watery after thawing.

I made this for a Maundy Thursday church dinner and it was a big hit. However, it does not serve 10 people. 8 at best. I will be keeping this recipe.

This is a family favorite!! Even the kids like it. Usually I have to make a double recipe because everyone always wants seconds!!

Loved it! But then again I love to snack on just plain cooked cauliflower

I've been told to stay away from pork so I used portobello mushrooms that added a nutty smoked flavor. Plus with my high blood pressure, I cut salt where ever I can.

It looks good. I have to try it and it's really low carbs but seems full of flavor with the bacon and pepper. I just started seeing uncured bacon without nitrates at my grocery store, so I will be using that.
