Stove Cook

These directions are for cooking this recipe to serve immediately and NOT to freeze for later.

  1. Working in batches, chop cauliflower in food processor until a rice like consistency is achieved.
  2. In a large saucepan saute onion in bacon fat until tender and translucent.
  3. Add the cauliflower, stirring to combine. Saute about 5 minutes, stirring.
  4. Next add chicken broth #1, garlic powder, sea salt, black pepper and coconut flour.
  5. Cover and simmer 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until a "grits-like" consistency is formed. If too thick add a splash of chicken broth, if too thin add additional coconut flour, 1 TBLS at a time.
  6. Transfer mixture to a casserole dish.
  7. Cool for 20 minutes.
  8. Whisk eggs together and stir into cauliflower mixture.
  9. Top with crumbled bacon and red pepper.
  10. In a cold saucepan whisk together tapioca starch, chicken broth #2, coconut milk and creole seasoning.
  11. Bring to medium heating, whisking constantly to prevent sticking and lumps.
  12. Cook until mixture is thick and creamy.
  13. Pour sauce evenly over cauliflower mixture.
  14. Bake at 350 for 45 minutes until bubbly.
