Loaded cauliflower & chicken casserole , .

It is rare that I would guess a recipe with the word “loaded” in the title is something healthful and packed with veggies. But this is that rare case! There’s bacon. There’s chicken. There’s lots of cheeses. And there’s a lots of freshly boiled cauliflower to keep things in perspective.

Prep Time: 10 minutes
Cook time: 30 minutes
Total time: 40 minutes
Servings: 12 Servings

INGREDIENTS:


3 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1 tablespoon olive oil
¾ teaspoon salt, divided
1 teaspoon pepper, divided
2 heads cauliflower, cut into florets
2 cups shredded monterey jack cheese, divided
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
¾ cup bacon pieces (about 2.8 ounces)
6 green onions, sliced
1 teaspoon garlic powder
