Faux Baked "Potato" Casserole

The following recipe is a good substitute with meals where you would normally have baked potatoes, such as with steak.

2 heads of Cauliflower
8 oz. sour cream
8 Oz. shredded cheddar
1 lb. bacon
1 stick butter
salt and pepper to taste

Break cauli apart and boil for about 30 mins or until tender.
Drain well in a colander.
Fry or nuke bacon until crisp and crumble.
Combine Cauli, butter, half the cheese, and sour cream in a bowl and using a mixer or hand masher, mash well.
Place in a caserole dish or a 9 x 13 pan.
Top with remaining Cheese and crumbled bacon.
Place in a preheated 350* oven until cheese is melted.
I like to use green onion, and use part of the green tops, chopped, for the topping. I also sprinkle the top with a little paprika for color.
