Best Keto Cauliflower Mac and Cheese Recipe

This Keto Cauliflower Mac and Cheese is what you call the adult Mac and Cheese. Now you can have Mac and Cheese without worrying about all the carbs! If you aren’t doing a keto diet, feel free to use low-fat cheese. As far as the heavy cream, you can substitute that with milk and some butter. There are other options for substituting heavy cream but I’ve found that this works best for me.

What can I add to Mac and Cheese?

There are a few things you can top your Mac and Cheese with. For this Keto Cauliflower Mac and Cheese recipe, I simply added some Jalapenos. Here is a list of things you can add to your Mac and Cheese:

• Bacon Bits (or make your own and cut into smaller pieces)
• Bread Crumbs
• More grated parmesan cheese or any other cheese
• Black Pepper
• Hot Sauce
• Shredded Chicken for added Protein

Some can get creative with this cauliflower mac and cheese dish. I would love to hear what you add to your Mac N Cheese. This should be interesting. I’ve heard some add tuna!
