Ingredients
- 2 pounds cauliflower, chopped into bite-size pieces
- 2 teaspoons olive oil
- 2½ teaspoons Italian seasoning, divided
- salt and black pepper, to taste
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 pound ground beef
- 2 cups marinara sauce
- 1 red bell pepper, diced
- 1 orange bell pepper, diced
- 8 ounces mushrooms, sliced
- 2 2.25-ounce cans sliced olives
- 1 medium yellow onion, diced
- 2 cups mozzarella cheese, shredded
- 2 cups cheddar cheese, shredded
- Garnish: red pepper flakes, chopped fresh parsley
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 425F/220C.
- Place chopped cauliflower in a large casserole dish. Drizzle olive oil, salt, pepper, 1 ½ teaspoons of Italian seasoning, and minced garlic and toss well. Bake for 15 minutes, stir cauliflower, and bake for another 10 minutes.
- Meanwhile, in a large skillet over medium heat, brown the ground beef. Use a spatula to break up the beef as it cooks. Season with 1 teaspoon of Italian seasoning and salt and pepper to taste.
- Once the cauliflower is done cooking, it’s time to layer your casserole. Spread half of the marinara sauce over the cauliflower evenly. Then add half the ground beef, half the bell peppers, half the mushrooms, half of the olives, half of the onions, and half of the cheese.
- Repeat this process again, using the remainder of the ingredients.
- Bake the casserole in the oven for 20 minutes, or until the cheese turns golden and bubbling.
- Garnish with fresh chopped parsley and red pepper flakes. Enjoy!
