Mashed Cauliflower with Cheese — this healthy and cheesy mashed cauliflower is creamy and fluffy, with cheddar cheese and crispy bacon. This low carb, keto and palaeo flavor version uses cooked cauliflower, grated cheddar cheese, cream cheese and butter to make a delicious accompaniment to prepare for Thanksgiving or other occasions. My final touches are some cream and cheddar cheese and crunchy bacon crumbs. Yum
