   • Wash the cauliflower thoroughly and break it into florets.
   • Steam the cauliflower until it is still crisp but just beginning to soften.
   • Drain well using a colander and let it sit for about 5 minutes to remove excess moisture.

2. Assembly:

   • Preheat your oven to 350-400°F (175-200°C).
   • Place the steamed cauliflower florets into an ovenproof dish.

3. Cheese Sauce:

   • Pour the heavy cream into the bottom of the dish. This helps create a creamy base for the cheese.
   • Layer enough Velveeta cheese slices over the cauliflower to completely cover it.

4. Baking:

   • Place the dish, uncovered, in the preheated oven. Bake for approximately 15 minutes, stirring every 5 minutes to ensure even cooking and to prevent sticking.
   • If the sauce appears too thick during baking, add a splash of cream to achieve your desired consistency. Conversely, if the sauce is too runny, allow it to rest for a few minutes to thicken naturally.

5. Serving:

   • Once baked to perfection, remove from the oven and serve hot as a delightful side dish or a satisfying main course for a low-carb meal.
