Loaded Cauliflower Casserole

Hey! Sorry I haven't posted in a while. The end of the school year is coming up and I've been super busy with all that! Here's a recipe I found on Pinterest and it's supposed to be like mac and cheese but with cauliflower... Good luck and may the odds be ever in your favor!
July

*SOURCE


2 lbs cauliflower florets
8 oz shredded sharp cheddar cheese, divided
8 oz shredded Monterey Jack cheese, divided
8 oz block cream cheese, softened
4 tablespoons heavy cream
2 bunches green onions, sliced (1 1/2 cups)
6 sliced bacon, cooked and crumbled
1 clove garlic, grated
Salt & pepper to taste

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Steam cauliflower florets until tender.

While cauliflower steams, cream together 6 oz of the shredded cheddar, 6 oz of the Monterey Jack, cream cheese, and heavy cream.  
Stir in sliced green onions, chopped bacon, and garlic.
Set aside.

Drain any liquid from steamed cauliflower and add to cheese mixture.
Stir cauliflower and cheese mixture together.
Taste for seasoning, and add as necessary.
If you want a finer texture, give a few mashes with the potato masher.
Pour into a 2-3 quart casserole and sprinkle on remaining cheddar and Monterey Jack cheese.
Cover dish with foil and bake for 25 minutes; remove foil and continue to bake until cheese is brown and bubbly.
Enjoy!

How To Make A One Direction T-Shirt

Hello, lovelies! I was browsing around the internet, and came across a tutorial for making a One  Direction logo T-shirt. I've yet to try this out, but I hope to someday. Let me know how it goes for you!

Thanks to Michelle and Camella who posted this tutorial originally here.


MATERIALS

- Acrylic paint (red, black and white)
- Paintbrushes (thick ones are best)
- Newspaper
- Sticky Tape
- Transparency sheet 
- Logo image
- Scissors or stencil knife

METHOD

Step 1:
(We chose logo 3 
g)

Step 2:
Copy Paste the chosen logo and paste it on Microsoft Word ( The Orientation of the page is Landscape)

Step 3:
Get a Transparency Film sheet and put it in your printer (This is the one we used)
Step 4:
and then just print it out on it, It should look like this:
Step 5:
Cut out the stencil using scissors/stanley knife. Remember to cut it neatly for a better result! We used a 
stanley knife first to cut a but off the particular word and then used the scissors for a steadier cut.
Step 6:
Then get your top and put newspaper in the inside of the top so the paint doesn’t go through to the 
other side 

Step 7:
Get your cut out stencil and place it on the top however you like it and put sticky tape at each end or 
wherever until it’s secure

Step 8:
Get your Acrylic paints out (It’s best to use this type because it dries faster and gives a better result)
Step 9:
We used these paintbrushes below (the thicker the brush the better and quicker)
Step 10:
Dab the paintbrush onto the stencil until all areas are covered with paint (Like the picture below) 
NOTE: YOU HAVE TO DAB SO THE STENCIL WON’T MOVE!
 
Step 10:
Use a smooth brush to smooth out the paint if you want too (We did)
Step 11:
Wait for the paint to dry and then pull off the sticky tape and DONE! It should turn out like these ones:
Step 12:
Remember before putting it in the wash put a cloth on top of the painted areas and iron it. This will 
prevent the paint from fading away when you put it in the wash! :)
