Baked Salmon Casserole is a delicious pasta-free bake that combines salmon and vegetables in a creamy sauce for a hearty yet low-carb meal option your whole family will love.
Prepare the vegetables. Fill a pot with water and bring it to a boil. Add the cauliflower florets and simmer on medium-low heat for 4-5 minutes. Then, drain the cauliflower and set it aside.
Make the roux. In a skillet, melt butter and add flour. Whisk them together. Gradually stir in the milk and heavy cream in batches, creating a roux while whisking.
Ensure that the mixture becomes smooth and free of lumps. Season the roux with salt, black pepper, and nutmeg. Mix until well combined, and then add lemon juice. Whisk the roux until it thickens.
