I put the florets in a large plastic storage bag and roasted them for dinner a few nights later with some roasted garlic paste. One medium head of cauliflower had enough stalk for me to have the 3 cups of shredded cauliflower I needed for this recipe. Then, I put them through the food processor with a shredding disc. To do this I cut off the florets trying to leave as much of the stalk as possible. But shredded cauliflower? That is a new one. This was the biggest part in disguising the cauliflower as a potato substitute.

BUT I would only use the stalks of fresh cauliflower because I wanted a shredded texture, not the texture of the florets which is more rice-like. My favorite potato sub is cauliflower so I decided I would just use cauliflower. Should I use jicama? Should I use radishes? What about cauliflower? And how on earth do I replicate cream of chicken soup? The more I thought about it the more my plan became solid in my mind. Every few months I would think about how could I possibly make the delicious, carb-loaded, fattening Cracker Barrel Hashbrown Casserole healthy?įirst, I thought over the different potato subs. Therefore, a remake of this has been on my recipe list for YEARS. It is delicious but is definitely not the healthiest option. I make egg bakes, some coffee cakes, and a copycat Cracker Barrel Hashbrown Casserole. It is a great make-ahead for brunches. Whenever my kids have had a celebration like a Baptism or First Communion my favorite (and the easiest) meal to feed our guests is always brunch. My kids have grown to love it too so I've made a few copycat recipes over the years using shredded potatoes and cream of chicken soup. Anytime we are on a road trip and pop into a Cracker Barrel with the kids I have a hard time resisting a heaping side of cheesy, potato goodness. That might be my favorite 4-word phrase ever.
