1 tsp Celtic sea salt
3 cups Cauliflower "rice"
1/4 cup butter
1/2 tsp black pepper
1 TBS chopped garlic
1 cup Cheddar, coarsely grated

Preheat oven to 350 F. Place cauliflower flowerettes in a food processor and pulse until small pieces of rice.
In a saucepan, add butter, salt, pepper, garlic, and cheese, stirring until butter and cheese are melted. Lightly beat eggs in a small bowl, then stir into "grits" until combined.
Pour into an ungreased 8-inch square baking dish (2 inches deep) and bake until set and lightly browned, about 1 hour. Serve immediately. Makes 4 servings.
