Cauliflower "Baked Ziti"

There’s nothing like a delicious baked ziti or other pasta dish oozing with sauce and cheese, especially when it’s cold outside. But sometimes you’re not in the mood for pasta or want a more healthful alternative, even though you still want that hot-out-of-the-oven, steaming cheesy experience. That’s why I’m so happy to have found that you can do the same thing with cauliflower! Although I used fresh cauliflower for this recipe you can certainly use frozen. But make sure it’s completely thawed and drained before you begin, or the results will be watery.

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Grease a 9 x 13-inch or similar sized baking pan or oven-to-table dish.

  2. Heat oil in a large sauté pan. Add cauliflower and cook, stirring often, until cauliflower is golden. Season with salt and garlic while cooking. Transfer cauliflower to a baking pan.

  3. Mix cauliflower with ricotta and one cup mozzarella cheese. Top with marinara sauce and additional cheese. Bake for 20 to 30 minutes, until cheese is golden and bubbly on top.

great low carb but filling dish!
I used frozen half broccoli and half cauliflower.
I thawed veg for 45 mins in a colander and then sautéed it per recipe directions. It took longer than if I had used fresh but the water did cook out and it was good.
