1/4 cup sour cream

Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish with non-stick spray.

In a mixing bowl, combine shredded chicken, buffalo sauce, cream cheese, sour cream, garlic powder, onion powder, and half of the shredded cheddar and mozzarella cheese. Mix until smooth.
Gently fold in the cauliflower florets, ensuring they are well coated with the mixture.
