What is your favorite veggie and how do you prepare it??
Lately I have really had cravings for cauliflower...I do not like it raw at all so this is how I have been preparing it
Mashed Cauliflower (for 4)
1 head of cauliflower cleaned and cut
4 tbs fat free cream cheese
4 tbs fat free parmesan cheese
2 tbs light/fat free butter spread
garlic powder (to taste)
salt (to taste)
pepper (to taste)
steam cauliflower until tender and drain in strainer really well
Blend cauliflower in food processor/blender with all the ingredients and mix until desired consistency (I like mine really smooth)
Roasted Cauliflower
toss cauliflower (one head) in olive oil (about 1/2 tbs)
Add garlic powder, salt, and pepper to taste
Bake on baking sheet for 15 minutes at 450 (turn half-way)
Sprinkle Parmesan cheese on before eating

Steamed brussel sprouts! Steamed asparagus is a close match. If I'm feeling patient, I might roast my brussel sproats with some olive oil spray and pepper.0
