This was so hearty and delectable. I fed a bunch of country boys with this meal...they would have had no idea it was low-carb or "diet food" except that they all know I'm on a low-carb diet. YUM!
4 boneless chicken breasts
1 brick cream cheese
1 bunch green onions, chopped
garlic powder
pepper
1 head cauliflower
2 cups shredded cheese
1 cup heavy cream
1/4 stick butter
chopped fresh parsley
pepper
1 teaspoon salt
Preheat oven to 400.
1) Cut cauliflower into florets. Place in large pot and cover with water. Boil until tender.
2) slice the chicken breasts in half lengthwise to make 8 pieces of chicken. Spread cream cheese on piece of chicken. Sprinkle green onion over cream cheese.
3) Roll up chicken to conceal cream cheese mixture. Wrap 2 pieces bacon criss-cross around each piece of chicken. You may need to secure with toothpick.
4) Sprinkle with garlic powder and fresh pepper. Bake in oven for 50 minutes.
5) Drain cauliflower. Place in large mixing bowl and lightly mash until no florets remain. Pour in cream. Add 1 cup cheese and mix well.
6) Dump mixture into casserole dish. Put butter pats on top of casserole. Sprinkle with fresh pepper. Top with remaining cheese and bake for 45 minutes.
7) Take casserole out. Sprinkle with parsley
8) Move chicken up to top rack and broil for a few minutes, so bacon gets crunchy.
9) Serve up, and enjoy!
Yum, yum and YUM :)
