Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Place the salmon fillets on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Brush with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, and season with salt, black pepper, and juice of half a lemon.
Bake the salmon in the oven for 12-15 minutes until fully cooked. Remove and let cool slightly, then flake into bite-sized pieces.
While the salmon is baking, chop the cauliflower into florets and pulse in a food processor until it resembles rice.
In a large skillet over medium heat, add 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Mince the garlic and slice the onion, then add to the skillet. Sauté until the onion is translucent.
Add the cauliflower rice to the skillet and cook for 5-7 minutes until tender. Season with a pinch of salt.
Pour the heavy cream into the skillet and stir in the grated Parmesan cheese. Simmer gently for 2-3 minutes until the sauce thickens.
Gently fold the flaked salmon into the cauliflower mixture.
Transfer the mixture to a greased baking dish and sprinkle with grated mozzarella cheese.
Place in the oven and bake at 400°F (200°C) for about 15 minutes, or until the top is golden and bubbly.
Finely chop the parsley and sprinkle over the dish along with the remaining lemon juice for garnish before serving.
