- 2 tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil

Directions
1. Preheat oven to 375° and butter a 9”-x-13” baking dish.

4. Remove from heat, add hot sauce if using and season with salt and pepper, then fold in roasted cauliflower. Taste and season more if needed.
5. Transfer mixture to prepared baking dish.
6. In a medium bowl stir to combine pork rinds, Parmesan, and oil. Sprinkle mixture in an even layer over cauliflower and cheese.
7. Bake until golden, 15 minutes. If desired, turn oven to broil to toast topping further, about 2 minutes.
8. Garnish with parsley before serving.
9. Enjoy!
