Keto Cauliflower Breakfast Casserole
This interesting breakfast option uses cauliflower as a base but still includes the all-important bacon and eggs! Both red and green peppers are snuck in there too, which is a great way to get the kids to eat more vegetables. The addition of ricotta and cheddar cheese is pure indulgence, meaning this perfectly keto breakfast will keep you satisfied well into the day!
Chef Tips
- You can buy ready-riced cauliflower, but the flavor of ricing fresh florets yourself is advised.
- Portion these into 6 pieces and wrap them up before freezing.
- These can be enjoyed any time of the day – and are especially good with a drizzle of Sriracha!

Cauliflower Breakfast Casserole
Equipment
Ingredients
- 1 TB olive oil
- 8.8 oz smoked bacon finely chopped (we use Butcher Box meat)
- 2 shallots peeled and finely chopped
- 1 red bell pepper finely chopped
- 1 green bell pepper finely chopped
- 12.3 oz cauliflower florets blitzed into ‘rice’
- 2 TB unsalted butter
- 3.5 oz cheddar cheese finely grated
- 8.8 oz ricotta cheese
- 4 large eggs whisked
- Sea salt
- Freshly ground black pepper
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 355°F (180°C).
- Heat the olive oil in a large non-stick pan (preferably a wok) and add the bacon lardons. Cook over medium heat for several minutes, then add the shallots and both bell peppers, cooking until the vegetables soften.
- Add in the cauliflower ‘rice’ – along with the butter – and increase the heat to high. Cook the mixture until the cauliflower softens and starts to caramelize, approx. 7-8 minutes, stirring continuously. Season the mixture with salt and freshly ground black pepper and stir in half the grated cheddar cheese to melt in. Remove the pan from the heat.
- Pour it into a greased baking dish (like a lasagne dish) and sprinkle on the remaining grated cheddar.
- Bake for 28-30 minutes.
- Serve portioned into 6 pieces!
