    Ok, I am just gonna say it - that sounds repulsive - but you get points for being creative

    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.

    I agree. Some of us have medical conditions. And some of us just can't eat carbs like oatmeal. I will never understand why people have to be so damn rude around here.

    Then, there are folks who love alternative recipes for their fruits and vegetables because they have a hard time eating them.

    OP, I am now totally grossed out. I like cauliflower, but not enough to put sugar on or in it.

    I want this thread in my feed to keep my appetite in check in case I ever get the temptation to eat after 6 pm (cuz everyone knows that turns muscle into fat).

    No way. Cauliflower is only a few centuries old. Our digestive tracts haven't evolved well enough to process it. We've been drinking milk, and eating grain longer and we still haven't evolved well enough to digest those. Learn your science son!


    ***Disclaimer: Nah. I'm just playin. This sounds delicious.

    ***Double Disclaimer: While I am just playin, this mess sounds nasty. Good luck on your journey, hippy.

    ETA: Nah I'm just plain. Despite it not being a real flower and looking like a brain, I like cauliflower.

    OMG- SO much ROFL on this side of my desk :laugh:

    Oh, dear God! Thank you so much!

    Now I have a healthy alternative to that horribly unhealthy oatmeal. Do you think you could figure out a way to make fruit and chicken out of cauliflower, too?

    Well, if you are what you eat then just feed the chicken cauliflower and BAM! It shall be one! I am at a loss for the fruit tho...

    If you feed the cauliflower AND the fruit to the chicken, than all you have to eat is the chicken, and chickens are very low-carb, so WIN!

    is butter a carb?

    Yes. But if you are on an all-carb diet, you can't eat at Taco Bell. :drinker:

    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!!

    Pics to follow!

    Perfect! Doesn't matter what you add to it, it all becomes negative calorie!

    I like to flavor it with ipecac syrup to make it double negative calorie.

    Really, what CAN'T you do with cauliflower? It's like a superfood!


    It is super flexible!! Like the Yoga of foods!!!

    May the florets be with you!
    I Adore cauliflower. I like it roasted, mashed, steamed, and grated up with some cheese to make a gluten-free pizza crust. About the only way I DON'T like it is raw. :-) Can't wait to try the breakfast version!

    I was into cauliflower before it was cool. Now it's, like, sold out or something. Pizza crusts and oatmeal, I ask you!

    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.

    Not to be rude, but.......Um, HELLO!!! Brown sugar is a CARB! You should know that by now. I NEVER use brown sugar on MY cauliflower oatmeal. Duh. :noway:

    Um, sugar is not a carb, it is a sugar. Check your Nutrition facts. It has Carbs listed THEN sugar. Seperately.

    I suggest you take a look at the wikipedia page for sugar (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sugar). It is most definitely a carb.

    Wikipedia is not peer reviewed.
    It is very basic knowledge that sugar is one of the simplest carbohydrates around. Here's the Encyclopædia Brittanica article, if you're worried that bad people at Wikipedia are trying to trick you: http://global.britannica.com/EBchecked/topic/571880/sugar

    Or here, from sugar.org: http://www.sugar.org/sugar-basics/all-about-sugar.html

    Or here, from CDC: http://www.cdc.gov/nutrition/everyone/basics/carbs.html#types of carbohydrates

    Or here, from Medline Plus: http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/ency/article/002469.htm



    Just.... thank you.
    To argue that sugar is not a carb is just..... :noway:

    Have fun with your cauliflower oats.

    Sounds like you could use some delicious carbs. Here, have a cauliflower cookie. :flowerforyou:

    people actually taking it seriously.....:laugh: :laugh:
