Low Calorie Mashed Cauliflower Casserole


This recipe serves 3 and has 250 calories and 8 grams of fat per serving.

This is just another mashed cauliflower casserole, only this time I've added some spaghetti squash rather than other veggies. I am a big fan of how these have turned out so far.

Ingredients:

1 Tbsp Minced Garlic
1 Head Cauliflower
2 chicken breasts, diced
4 green onions
4 Slices Turkey Bacon
1 cup egg white
1/2 cup chicken broth
2 Tbsp Fat Free Sour Cream
1/2 seeded Spaghetti Squash
1 Tbsp "I Can't Believe It's Not Butter"
1/4 Cup Fat Free Mozzarella Cheese
1 wedge Laughing Cow Cheese
Crisco Calorie Free Olive Oil Spray

Directions:
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.

Puncture two holes in the spaghetti squash with a knife. Place in the oven on 350 degrees and cook for 1 hour. There are quicker ways to do this with a microwave, but I think it tastes better when cooked in the oven. Cut the squash in half and remove all seeds and pulp. Fork out the spaghetti like strands and set them aside.

Spray pan with olive oil and saute onions. Add diced chicken and cook. Set aside.

Break cauliflower into flourettes and boil until soft. Drain and pour into a mixing bowl along with the chicken broth. Mash. Mix in minced garlic, cheese wedge, sour cream, butter, and egg. Heat mixture in the microwave for 2 minutes. For a smooth, even texture, blend the cauliflower.

Mix all the remaining ingredients in with the mashed cauliflower and pour into a casserole dish. Sprinkle Cheese on top. Place the dish in the oven and cook for 30-45 minutes.
