Cheesy Cauliflower Casserole

Prep time: 10 minutes | Cook time: 45 minutes | Serves: 8

1 head cauliflower, cut into florets
1 cup low-fat cottage cheese
1 cup low-fat plain Greek yogurt
½ teaspoon Dijon mustard
¼ teaspoon garlic powder
2 ounces (½ cup) shredded aged white Cheddar cheese
2 ounces (½ cup) shredded mild Cheddar cheese

1 Preheat the oven to 350°F.

2 Fill a medium pot one-third full with water, and place a steamer basket
inside. Bring the water to a boil over high heat.

3 Add the cauliflower to the steamer basket, cover the pot, and reduce the
heat to a gentle boil. Steam the cauliflower for 10 to 15 minutes, or until
the florets are soft. Alternatively, you can steam the cauliflower with 2
tablespoons of water in the microwave on high for about 4 minutes, or
until tender.

4 While the cauliflower steams, mix together the cottage cheese, yogurt,
mustard, and garlic powder in a medium bowl.

5 Drain the cauliflower in a large colander, and gently mash it with a
potato masher to drain out excess water.

6 Stir the cauliflower pieces into the cottage cheese mixture. Add the
Cheddar cheeses and mix well.

7 Transfer the cauliflower mixture to an 8-by-8-inch or 11-by-7-inch baking dish. Bake for about 30 minutes. It is done when the edges begin to brown.

8 Serve immediately.
