Easy Cheesy Cauliflower Muffins (Low Carb)

28

There’s not too much prep involved in these delicious little bites but you will enjoy them immensely. I love to have them for breakfast, snack time or as a side dish. You will not regret making these and even doubling the recipe!

This recipe really is versatile where you can add in more cauliflower to remove any other vegetables from the mixture. These are ideal as an appetizer, breakfast, side dish or late night snack.

If you like this recipe you will love my Easy Cheesy Zucchini Bites or my Cheesy Cauliflower Nuggets. I love to reheat them in my mini counter top oven and serve with some Greek yogurt dip.
