Ingredients Needed for Bacon Wrapped Cheddar Stuffed Cauliflower
1 cauliflower
water
7 ounces of Cheddar, cut into sticks
12 ounces of bacon, sliced
For the sauce:
¼ cup heavy cream
1 tablespoon garlic powder
2 teaspoons of paprika powder
salt
pepper
1 cup low moisture mozzarella, for the topping
fresh dill, for garnishing
How to Make Bacon Wrapped Cheddar Stuffed Cauliflower
- Add the cauliflower to a water-filled deep pot over high heat and bring it to a boil. Boil for 10 minutes.
- Place the cooked cauliflower on the work surface and bore deep holes in it using a cylindrical cutter. We made 13 of them. Insert the Cheddar sticks into the holes.
- Line a medium bowl with the bacon slices. Do that so that they radiate from the bottom center of the bowl upwards to its rim. Place the stuffed cauliflower in the bacon-lined bowl.
- For the sauce:Add the heavy cream, garlic powder, and paprika powder to a smaller bowl. Season with salt and pepper and mix.
- Cover the cauliflower with this sauce using a kitchen brush. Wrap it with the bacon slices.
- Transfer the wrapped cauliflower on a parchment paper-lined baking tray and bake for 50 minutes at 320⁰F/160⁰C.
- Remove from oven and add the mozzarella on top. Bake for 10 minutes at 360⁰F/180⁰C. Serve garnished with fresh dill.

What is the serving size that matches the nutrient list
Hi. 165 grams in this case.
Sounded good, but never could get the ingredients to print. What’s up with that? got the directions.
Yeah, we have some issues with a bug. Our programmers are still trying to get the hang of it.
I wonder if this would work with broccoli – I hate cauliflower….
You know what? This may not be such a bad idea. It’s worth trying.
Loved this! Absolutely delicious and not hard to do.
✌
We loved this and I will make again. A couple of things I found was that boiling for 10 mins was too long, it almost fell completely apart getting out of pot. Also had to cook at higher temp and I did trim bacon at the top.
👍
I plan on making this for sure. I’m strict Keto. I was wondering if you could tell me approximately how many slices of bacon you used so that I may create a nutritional chart? Thank you.
Here we’ve used somewhere between 24 – 26 strips of bacon. ?
I tried this myself and it tasted really good but the bacon was only crispy at the top. The bottom was cooked but chewy. Any hints for crispy overall. The only difference from the original recipe was cheddar instead of mozzarella. I did give it an extra 15 mins at 400 to try and crisp up the bacon.
Yes, the bottom part of the bacon wrap, overrun by that melting cheese, cannot be as crispy as the upper part which gets total exposure to the heat. If you’re really looking for a crispy lower part, you can try to grill the whole thing a little just before getting it to the oven. Try that.
I loved the recipe
✌
This was sooooooo good I want to do it aain and again!

We’re on the same page, Barb! We’ve prepared this 3 times.
This looks so good and will totally fit into the Keto food plan. Thanks you.
👍 You’re welcome, Carol!
How long do you think it would keep for? i’m on my own so would have to last a few days for me to get through it!
Sadly, cooked cauliflower doesn’t hold for too much. In the fridge, maybe up to 3 days. Maybe! But you know what? Better reduce quantities to 1/2 or 1/4 and eat it fresh.
I’m trying it today not sure what I did wrong the cauliflower fell about when I took it out of pan I still put cheese and wrapped it the best I could i put it in cold water when it started to boil I timed it for 10 minutes any idea thanks
If you arrange the bacon strips carefully so that they partially overlap each other, it should hold. Especially if you use a skewer to fix them as we did.
The entire thing fell apart when I transferred it to the parchment lined baking sheet. Still in the oven so am hopeful it will at least taste good.
Lay the bacon strips carefully (they should overlap each other) and use a skewer to fix them together. How did it go?
Second time making this dish! I too reduced boil time as the cauliflower did have the tendency to fall apart when trying to stuff with the cheese. Secondly, without clearer instruction, I found it easier to just pour the sauce on, wrap the bacon ends up and then put your baking sheet on top of that bowl and invert. The bacon stayed in place and only a little of the sauce seeped out. It would have been helpful to know in the beginning that skewers might be needed. Great recipe but clearer instruction would have been awesome!
You’re totally right, Beth. We should have written down about using that skewer. But in our defense, it does show up in the video. ✌😁
What is the tool that you cut holes in the cauliflower?
Hi, Casey. It’s a hole cutter.
