It was not that long ago that hippies and tree huggers were the only ones to show concern concerning the well-being of the environment. That’s a thing of the past now, with everybody being aware of the problems besetting the planet and also the shared obligation we have for turning things around. The experts are agreed that we are unable to adjust things for the better without everyone’s active contribution. This needs to happen soon and living in approaches more friendly to the environment should become a mission for every individual family. Here are a number of tips that can help you save energy, primarily by making your kitchen area more green.

A large amount of electricity is consumed by freezers and refrigerators, and it’s even worse if they are working inefficiently. You can save up to 60% on energy whenever you get a new one, in comparison to those from longer than ten years ago. The appropriate temperature for food is 37F inside the fridge and 0F in the freezer, and sticking to these will use less electricity. You can reduce how often the motor has to run by frequently cleaning the condenser, which will save on electricity.

The kitchen alone gives you many small means by which energy and money can be saved. It is quite easy to live green, of course. It’s about being functional, more often than not.

The ingredients needed to make Loaded Cauliflower Bake:
  1. Provide head cauliflower
  2. Provide sour cream (light version: light sour cream)
  3. Get mayonnaise (light version: reduced fat mayo like Hellman's mayo made with olive oil)
  4. Provide green onions - finely sliced, green & white parts (optional)
  5. Provide Oscar Mayer Selects Real Bacon Pieces - divided
  6. Provide shredded cheddar - divided (light version: reduced fat cheese like Kraft 2% shredded cheddar)
  7. Prepare garlic powder (we love garlic so I added about 1/4 tsp)
  8. Get salt and pepper to personal taste
Instructions to make Loaded Cauliflower Bake:
  1. Rinse cauliflower and cut or break florets into pieces (1-1 1/2in or so). Steam or boil until just fork tender. I steamed mine in a steamer basket, with salt and pepper sprinkled on top, for about 15 minutes.
  2. When done steaming remove pot from heat, carefully remove lid from pot to let excess steam escape, then carefully remove cauliflower still in steamer basket from pot and place on plate to let cauliflower air dry slightly while you prepare the "sauce". If you boiled your cauliflower, drain in a colander and set aside.
  3. Preheat oven to 450°F and spray a 2 quart baking dish with nonstick cooking spray.
  4. In a large bowl combine sour cream, mayo, garlic powder, 1/2 cup shredded cheese and 2 tbs bacon pieces, stirring until well incorporated. Add salt and pepper after bacon to adjust seasoning accordingly (I usually don't need much if any).
  5. Add cauliflower and green onion. Stir gently to coat. It's ok if you break apart some of the cauliflower it will definitely happen.
  6. Transfer to prepared baking dish, gently spread out evenly, top with remaining shredded cheese and bacon pieces. Bake uncovered for 15-20 minutes or until cheese is melted and the edges are bubbly.
  7. Let sit 5-10 minutes before serving. Eat and enjoy!
