- Yields:
-
2 sandwiches
ingredients
- 20 ounces cauliflower rice (about 6 cups)
- 2 eggs
- 1⁄3 cup parmesan cheese, grated
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 1⁄4 cups shredded cheddar cheese
directions
- Preheat an oven to 450 degrees.
- Add the cauliflower rice to a large microwave safe. Cover with plastic wrap and microwave for 6-8 minutes. Stir every two minutes until the cauliflower is cooked through.
- When cool enough to handle, place the cauliflower in a clean kitchen towel and wring out the excess liquid.
- To a bowl add the cooked cauliflower rice, eggs and grated parmesan cheese. Season with salt and pepper and mix until the ingredients are thoroughly combined.
- Lightly spray a parchment paper lined sheet tray with nonstick cooking spray.
- Divide the cauliflower mixture in 4. Using your hands press and shape the mixture to resemble a slice of bread. Repeat process until you have 4 slices of bread.
- Bake in the oven for 20 minutes until golden brown.
- Remove from oven and sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese on to two pieces of the cauliflower.
- Using a spatula, carefully place a piece of cauliflower bread on top of each sandwich. Place back in oven and cook until the cheese has melted, about 3 minutes.

The recipe calls for baking the “bread” 20 min. And the video 3 min. Which is correct?

What makes this grilled cheese with cauliflower so high in carbs?? -
Why is the riced cauliflower that brownish color? -
Wow the carb count is way too high for a keto diet. Please don’t advertise this as keto and mislead people. It should just say gluten free.

I was looking at the carb count and it seemed very high for something that is supposed to be low carb? 227.6 - is this a mistake?

Sounds delicious but definitely not Keto. You are an amazing chef and I wish you can make some keto recipes for your keto followers as well as put the serving sizes down in the recipes.

Hello. I think it’s safe to assume that the complaint about the carb rate being high is that this is the total carb, not the Net Carb, which seems to scare off a lot of people. Cauliflower has high carb, but a great portion is ‘net’ so I believe this is safe. Happy eats! -
