Preparation
Pulse cooked cauliflower in a food processor until it resembles grits consistency. Dump cauliflower in a sauce pan and add butter, heavy cream and cheddar cheese. Start to melt cheddar cheese and butter. The grits will be nice and creamy. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
In a large skillet over medium high heat, cook bacon until crisp. Drain on papertowels and set aside to cool. Crumble when cooled and set aside.
