Ingredients
1 head cauliflower, coarsely chopped
1 (4 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese
½ teaspoon garlic powder
salt and ground black pepper to taste
¼ cup shredded Cheddar cheese, or as needed

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
Place a steamer insert into a saucepan and fill with water to just below the bottom of the steamer. Bring water to a boil. Add cauliflower, cover, and steam until tender, 5 to 10 minutes. Transfer cauliflower to a bowl.
