Low Carb Keto Pepper Jack Cauliflower Recipe

I am really loving my slow cooker lately. It’s usually one of those countertop appliances that I don’t actually keep on my countertop. It typically lives down on my pantry shelving in the basement, coming up once or twice a month. But these days, I make a recipe with it and clean it up and intend on hauling it back down stairs, only to discover another recipe idea in my head that requires it. My husband, who can be somewhat fastidious about uncluttered counters, gave up trying to get it out of the way because I was using it almost daily. Really, it’s been good to me lately, producing some easy and delicious food for my family.

Easy cheesy and low carb! Keto Slow Cooker Cauliflower Recipe

The best slow cooker recipes are the ones where you just dump the ingredients in and walk away. This is almost one of those recipes. I say almost because you do have to come back and add the cheese at the end, and stir and then let it cook a tiny bit longer. But really, there’s so little work here and you end up with a super creamy, super flavourful low carb side dish.

And can I just say that the leftovers make a great breakfast? Bacon optional.

  1. I am using my slow cooker a lot lately. I cook up enough meat to last us the week. I made your ginger bread cake recipe and it was fantastic. Beyond moist. I did have a hard time getting it out so next time I will line with parchment. Just bought a head of cauliflower so this will be on the menu this week. Thanks so much for the wonderful recipes.

    • Have you ever tried the slow cooker liners? They are wonderful! I use them all the time when cooking with my slowcooker. They are a plastic liner, so they probably wouldn’t stick. I love them because they save on clean up and you don’t have to use cooking sprays. You can find them in grocery stores usually beside the tinfoil, wax paper, cling wrap, ziploc bags, etc.

    • Can always put water in and put it on warm. Leave it on for a half hour to an hour. Right after that pour out the water it will take a lot of whats left on out and make it easier to clean afterwards. I use liners from time to time but there are mornings I forget or run out of them and someone sent me the trick awhile back. My husband and I split cleaning and cooking duties. If I cook he cleans and if he cooks vice versa. He had the same problem when we found the trick from a friend.

  2. How much cauliflower did you use in this…roughly? Size of heads vary too much – sm, md, lg, or est of oz or cups would be cool.
    Thx

  3. Thanks for another outstanding recipe. We needed a new slow cooker, after 15 years it up and quite, purchased an Instant Pot it’s a slow cooker, rice cooker, pressure cooker, yogurt maker all I can say is Best purchase we have made other than Wolf oven. Have used all of the functions mentioned, yogurt is great never buying it again. Pot is traveling as we head out in the travel trailer.

  4. This recipe is un-be-liev-able. I tried it on the weekend and couldn’t stop thinking about it. I have two more cauliflower cut up in the fridge ready for another go.

    I used to miss mac & cheese. I would take the pepper jack cauliflower over mac & cheese any day.

  6. I really want to make this but only have frozen cauliflower at the moment. Do you think that will work or will it get too mushy in the crock pot?

  8. Hi Carolyn, quick question…. would you ever consider creating meal plans like “Peace love and low carb”???
    I just can’t get enough of your food!! It’s so simple and such a variety. I know there are thousands of people that would pay same if not more that the other website…. just a thought….

    Kindest Regards

  10. Tried this recipe out and while we both have very different ideas of comfort food this has us BOTH hooked! Very very delicious!

  12. Have you ever tried it with something other than whipping cream. Low fat milk or fat free milk? fat free cheese?
    The recipe sounds wonderful

  14. Love this, have made it several times. Great sub for macaroni and cheese or scalloped potatoes. Definitely should be in contention for best of 2017.

  15. I didn’t have this cheese, so substituted sharp cheddar, but it was still very delicious. Great recipe!…and so easy…. My only problem was thinking ahead 3 1/2 hours before dinner to get it started.

  16. I’ve ben terrified to try any cauliflour recipes bc I just don’t care for califlour. However, this one caught my eye and I think I’m going to go for it.

  17. LOVE this recipe! Had some left over and I keep sneaking a few bites as I pass the fridge 🙂
    I also love rice pudding and was hoping for a “sister” recipe (slow cooker, cauliflower, cream cheese, etc) but ending up as rice pudding!! Anything like that in the works Carolyn??

  18. Slow cooker liner question!
    There seem to be metal ones and plastic ones?
    Any suggestions?
    The plastic ones concern me a little, leaching chemicals?

  19. Carolyn, looks like you didn’t get a response for the link to the slow cooker liners. Here’s one: https://www.amazon.com/PanSaver-Cooker-Cooking-Perfect-Cholent/dp/B06Y25854T?SubscriptionId=AKIAILSHYYTFIVPWUY6Q&tag=duckduckgo-d-20&linkCode=xm2&camp=2025&creative=165953&creativeASIN=B06Y25854T. This one is for 100 which equals to $.33 each.

    You can find them in most stores, Reynolds is the notable brand, they come 4-6 to a box and for different size slow cookers.

    Thank you for all your hard work. I’m going to make this recipe tomorrow!

  21. Carolyn – I work outside the home, so prepping this for a 3 hour leadtime is problematic. Wondered if you had any experience with doing it in the Instapot?

    Love love love your recipes. I was gifted an EKK cookbook for Christmas!

    • I’ve been known to set my lamp timer and plug my crockpot into that before leaving for work. If everything I put in is very cold from the ‘fridge, I figure it is all good for an hour or two before it starts cooking.

  22. I’m using my instant as a slow cooker today and it doesn’t have a high or low setting. I currently have had the cauliflower in for a 1.5 hours and it’s already tender. Should I put the cheese in now?

    Reply

  23. Hi Carolyn! I was thinking about adding chicken to this recipe to make it a meal in and of itself. We love it as a side! I was thinking that if I added some cubed chicken to the cooker before all the rest it might come out about the same if I drained any extra moisture before adding the cauliflower. What do you think?

  25. I see that the recipe calls for whipping cream, but did not see you use it in the video. Is this optional? Looking forward to making this tonight.

  26. Do you have any cooking suggestions to change this from slow cooker to instant pot? It looks delicious but im too impatient qnd unprepared for slow cooking more often than not haha.

    • Check out some IP cauliflower recipes and then use my additions. I am not really sure of the timing of it. Wish I could help more!

  29. Recipe looks awesome and I can’t wait to try it! I’d love if you could list ingredients and measurements within your blog for convenience though! It makes for an easy screenshot then grocery list lol. Plus it seems it’s answer a few of the questions people have asked for you.
    Thank you for sharing your recipes!

    • This is one I was paid to create and so the whole recipe lives on the Sweet Life website. Should be pretty easy to take a screen shot of that.

  31. I made this and we LOVED it! My husband, who is known to be extremely fond of bacon, even said that the bacon was unnecessary. It’s THAT good! I’m going to double it for an Easter side dish with our ham. Thanks for this amazing recipe.
