Creamy Chicken, Broccoli & Cauliflower Bake (LCHF)

Another tweak of several recipes I saw online. I swapped out coconut milk for heavy cream to cut the carbs, then just found a happy medium between the different recipes I used as a reference point (they were paleo, but not low carb).

- 8
Brown the chicken in small batches, then set it aside in a bowl.

Season the chicken in the bowl.

'Pizza' Cauliflower Bake (LCHF) 'Pizza' Cauliflower Bake (LCHF)
While the cauliflower crust has revolutionized low carb dinners, I sometimes don't have the time or gumption to be grating cauliflower (and to be honest I am not entirely sold on the texture of cauliflower crust). This is a lazy way to get the pizza flavours we all sometimes crave, plus the sauce gets in between those florets... Also, less cheese, more whole vegetables. Celeste -

Loaded Cauliflower Bake Loaded Cauliflower Bake
I made a loaded cauliflower bake once from a recipe I found. It was good, but it used cream cheese and that's not always "my thing". I thought something just seemed to be missing (I think it was the mayo). So I tinkered with ingredients till I figured out what I liked best and voila. Lol StephieCanCook -

Creamy baked cauliflower Creamy baked cauliflower

So I whipped up this baked cauliflower dish. There were a few initial comments around the table that the dish wasn't Filipino, but no one complained once they tasted it. Robert Gonzal -
