Ingredients

• 1 large head cauliflower
• 1 pound lobster meat
• 1 cup heavy cream
• 4 ounces cream cheese

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

Cut the cauliflower into bite-sized florets. Steam the florets for about 5-7 minutes until they are tender but still firm. Drain well and set aside.

In a large skillet over medium heat, melt the butter. Add the minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 1 minute.

Step 4

Add the heavy cream and cream cheese to the skillet, stirring until the cream cheese is fully melted and combined with the cream.

Step 5

Gradually mix in the cheddar cheese and Parmesan cheese, stirring constantly until the cheese is fully melted and the sauce is smooth.

Step 6

Stir in the dijon mustard, paprika, salt, and black pepper to taste.

Step 7

Add the steamed cauliflower and lobster meat to the skillet, gently folding them into the cheese sauce until everything is well coated.

Step 8

Transfer the mixture to a greased 9x13 inch baking dish, spreading it out evenly.

Step 9

Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, until the top is golden brown and bubbly.

Step 10

Remove from the oven and let it sit for a few minutes before serving.

Step 11

Garnish with fresh parsley before serving.
