I do love a cheeseburger every once in a while, but I always skip the bun. I’m gluten free, buns at burger joints are not. I’m eating as low carb as I can to take off some weight gained while writing my cookbook, burger buns do not fit into the low carb category so I forgo it.
Ingredients
  • 1 head cauliflower or about 6 cups florets
  • 1/3 cup 1.4oz (40g) coconut flour or choice flour
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 6 ounces uncured reduced sodium bacon
  • 1 1/2 pounds ground beef or turkey
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder

  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon pepper
Sauce
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 1 tablespoon coconut flour or choice
  • 1 1/2 cups heavy cream
  • 2 tablespoons yellow mustard
  • 8 ounces sliced organic 100% cheddar cheese I used Horizon
Instructions
  1. Steam the cauliflower until fork tender.
  2. Place into a food processor and pulse until it resembles rice.
  3. Set aside in a bowl to cool then add the flour and salt and mix well.
  4. Cook the bacon in a large skillet until moderately cooked, but not crisp.
