So I am a big fan of oatmeal, but OMG the carbs!!! So I was trying to figure out a replacement and suddenly thought..."Why not Cauliflower?!"

I steamed a head of cauliflower in the microwave for 8 minutes, then pureed in a food processor. Added a bit of milk (fat free), cinnamom, and brown sugar, let it sit in the fridge overnight, and voila!! Tastes exactly like oatmeal!!

    Oh please dear God tell me this is a joke. I've seen so much weird *kitten* passed off as alternative recipes that I just don't know any more. :sad:

    Recipe? I have been trying to get myself to eat cauliflower for years. This might do the trick.

    It's soooooo delicious! Next time, add some wasabi to it. Trust me, it's TO DIE FOR!

    I actually dry out a head of cauliflower and then pulverize it to make cauliflower cinnamon! It would be great with this!

    Didn't I see a recipe someplace for cauliflower milk? That would be much better for you than cow's milk.

    OMG brilliant!!! I wonder if this would make a good refrigerator oatmeal as well?!?! I LOVE OVERNIGHT OATS. Usually you make them with greek yogurt, oats and refrigerate overnight. I'm going to swap the oats for cauliflower next time I make this!! YOU HAVE JUST SAVED ME A TON OF EVIL CARBS!! Bless you!! :flowerforyou:

    Cauliflower smoothies go great! Just sweeten it with broccoli.

    Scramble up a little cauliflower mash to go with that...no need to worry about protein OR carbs. It's practically a negative-calorie meal!!! :love:

    OMG! I HATE overnight cauliflower oats! Those are the worst! Why can't people just be satisfied with regular cauliflower oatmeal?

    No need to be rude. Cauliflower has a natural sweetness that can be enhanced by adding brown sugar and cinnamon. Eating low carb is tough, but worth it.
