8ouncescooked chicken breastshredded or diced (about 2 cups)
1Tbspsalted butter
2cupschopped raw cauliflower
2ozcream cheese
⅓cupheavy cream
1cupshredded cheddar cheesedivided
1tspranch dressing mixdry
¼cupbacon bits
Instructions
Shred chicken and chop cauliflower; set aside. Spray a 6 cup baking dish with cooking spray. (Mine is a Pyrex that is 8"x6", but any oven safe dish will work.) Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
In a saucepan over medium heat, saute cauliflower in butter until crisp tender, about 5-8 minutes.
Turn heat to low. Add cream cheese and cream; cook and stir until the cream cheese is completely melted.
Stir in chicken, 1/2 cup of cheddar cheese, dry ranch dressing mix, and bacon.
Spread mixture in prepared baking dish. Sprinkle remaining 1/2 cup cheese over the top.
Bake at 350° for about 15 minutes, or until cheese is melted and casserole is hot and bubbly.
Notes
Instead of putting into a casserole dish, you can just use an oven safe skillet and sprinkle the cheese on top. Bake as directed.
