I, too, love it but I am also lazy. I merely zap a bag of frozen florets until they are well done and then mash them with my hand blender and one-half cup of 2% cottage cheese. I also throw in a little salt, pepper and mashed garlic. I can still see some little curds from the cheese, but, hey, it's just for me.

I've been making cauliflower mash f...Hi Sean, <br /><br />I've been making cauliflower mash for the past couple of months, I got this recipe from the Wheat Belly cookbook, it's awesome, tastes almost exactly like mashed potatoes. You take the largest head of cauliflower that you can find, break it up into florets, steam it for 23min. Then you put in in your blended and add 2 ounces of either regular or low fat cream cheese, 2 table spoons of butter and 1/4 tsp of fine sea salt. Blend until smooth and enjoy! I usually make mine into 4-5 servings depending on how large the cauliflower was. Another thing that I've been doing is making up a batch of steamed or stir-fry veggies and then pouring a little of the cauliflower mash over those as a sort of sauce, it tastes wonderful.

I was trying to make mashed but had undercooked it, and was mashing it with the back of a spoon. Since it was too firm, it made 'fake rice' instead - and now we have that ALL the time, with stir fry or whatever. Still haven't gone back to trying it mashed. :-)Marilyn from twitternoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3126474537687051974.post-9587751144905719602015-03-16T09:14:49.899-05:002015-03-16T09:14:49.899-05:00Your "moving" friends (whether moving or...Your "moving" friends (whether moving or needing to be picked up at the airport) are sure lucky to have you in their life Sean!<br />Cauliflower is a good addition to your life. Much bang for the calorie buck.<br />Listened to Oprah's Super Soul Sunday interview today and he talked about how "resistance" is always there when you are about to do something worthwhile. It is a law of nature just as gravity is. Be prepared and don't let it knock you off course. When you are about to do something great is when it is especially evident. Am going to keep this uppermost in my sight when I am wanting to procrastinate.

There are tons of cauliflower recipes on Paleo/Primal sites.

I also like to cook a clove of garlic with the cauliflower and bland that with it. Some other ideas....broth instead of milk, I also like to sometimes add a little cream cheese or cheese and bland with it...key word is little! You really do not need a lot, a tablespoon goes a long way. I also like to add a little parsley for color and flavor if I have it. Glad you tried it, Sean! Really good and good bang for your calorie buck! I had roasted cauliflower yesterday and may do mashed tonight!<br /><br />DedeAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3126474537687051974.post-32620610944757759872015-03-16T00:17:05.985-05:002015-03-16T00:17:05.985-05:00Look at you Mr. Cauliflower!!
