Cauliflower recipes?
Options
I've been hearing people talk a lot about mashed cauliflower or using it as pizza crust, etc. I'm going to start watching my carb intake more and was wondering what were some good recipes for people like me, that to be honest I think I've only eaten cauliflower once, it was ok but it's not my favorite. Would I even like it in different forms (ie mashed or what not)? thanks

Ok...saw the recipe on here and tried it and it was DELICIOUS!
Roasted cauliflower soup.
12 oz cauliflower, broken into florets
1 medium onion, sliced
2 14.5 oz cans of no fat or low sodium chicken broth
2 tbsp olive oil
salt and pepper to taste
Crank the oven to 450, place the onion and cauliflower florets on a baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil and bake for 20 minutes, flipping over at 10. Cauliflower should have brown spots on it by the time its done.
Meanwhile, heat up the chicken broth on medium heat.
Add cauliflower, onion to the broth. Deglaze the baking pan with a little bit of water and add to the pot. Add salt and pepper to taste.
Simmer for 10 minutes.
Use a handy blender to mash it up!
I loved mine with a sprinkle of sesame oil.
hope you like it.
I think its about 100 calories per cup. may be less.0 -

I got a recipe from the South Beach Diet cookbook for mashed cauliflower using a triangle of laughing cow cheese... I tried it and it was actually really good!0

I just made some amazing roasted cauliflower. Toss lightly in olive oil and salt, throw on a shallow pan with some crushed walnuts and cook at 450 for about 35 minutes (or until you see it browning). Pile it on a plate and either eat it OR if you want a little richness, your favorite goat cheese (I used lemon chevre) will do the trick.
The cheese isn't necessary, but if you can afford a few extra calories, it makes the dish even yummier. This is a great way to satisfy a "I really want something salty/savory like potato chips" craving.0 -
Boil your cauliflower in some chicken stock and then mash it and flavor with salt and pepper--they taste like

My Cauliflower mash is quite simple.
Steam one head of Cauliflower until tender.
Place in food processor with 1 teaspoon of salt +/- 1 tablespoon of butter (your preference)
Process until smooth. (add small amount of cream if too thick
Spoon 1/2 of the cauliflower into casserole dish and sprinkle top with sharp cheddar cheese (I uses enough to cover the mash
Spoon second 1/2 of cauliflower on top of the first layer and top off with additional cheese
Toss into oven at 350 degrees until cheese is melted and a little toasty on the edge
Hmmm... We love it. Really low carb and can be low fat depending on the cheese/butter/cream decisions0
