Ingredients
Cauliflower cheese sauce:

- Make the Sauce by heating 2 tablespoons chicken broth in a medium-sized pot. Sauté onions until translucent then add garlic.
- Add cauliflower and chicken stock and cover. Steam for 5 minutes.
- Add everything from the pot into a blender and blend until smooth. Add nutritional yeast, salt and lemon juice. Set sauce aside
- Place cooked chicken and steamed broccoli in a small casserole dish and pour cheese sauce over the top.
- Bake in a 350-degree oven approx 20 minutes until cheese sauce is bubbling around the edges. Remove from the oven and serve while hot!
Add cooked miracle rice to the casserole along with the chicken and broccoli for an extra filling dinner.
This recipe freezes well so make a large casserole (2 or 3x the recipes) and freeze to use at a later date.
The cauliflower cheese sauce is also delicious on plain chicken, miracle noodles or tossed with cooked ground beef.
Layer the chicken and broccoli in an instant pot and top with the cheese sauce for a quick way to cook!
