Cauliflower recipes?

The pizza, lasagna and the mashed cauliflower recipes are all great. I know the pizza and lasagna are both on here!

Google Cauiflower rice. I made "fried" rice with it and my kids thought it was real rice! The pizza is great too.

I've tried it as mock mashed garlic potatoes and it was yum! I'm excited to try these other recipes too! Great question!

Damn you!!! Now I can't make myself get off of that Skinny Taste website... sigh... A lot of it looks super yummy, though... lol

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.

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 decisions

I love mashed cauliflower, and I love the cauliflower pizza crust!! Who knew Cauliflower could make up such yummy things!!
I also love these Cauliflower Fritters!! http://www.skinnytaste.com/2009/02/cauliflower-fritters-25.html

I mix up some light mayo, fresh garlic and a packet of the ranch dressing to dip them in too!!

I just recently post this, hope you enjoy trying them. :flowerforyou:
Cauliflower Fritters

Servings: 12 • Size: 2 fritters • Old Points: 2 pts • Points+: 3 pts
Calories: 108.9 • Fat: 6.6 g • Protein: 3.8 g • Carb: 9.4 g • Fiber: 2.1 g

This is a delicious way to prepare cauliflower. Similar to the taste of a potato pancake. Your kids will love them! Makes approx 24 fritters depending on size of cauliflower

4 cups steamed cauliflower (roughly chopped)

2 cloves garlic, crushed
1 cup whole wheat flour
2 eggs
1/2 cup Pecorino Romano
1/4 cup parsley, finely chopped
1/4 cup hot water

salt and pepper
1/4 cup olive oil

In a large bowl, combine cauliflower, flour, garlic, eggs, grated cheese, parsley, salt and pepper. Add water so that batter becomes slightly more dense than pancake batter.

On medium-low heat, add 1 tbsp of oil in a 10 inch skillet coating bottom of the pan. Use a 1/4 cup measuring cup to form fritters. You can fit 4 fritters at a time. Cook until golden brown, turn and cook another few minutes. Add a little more oil to the pan, and repeat with the remaining batter.

Makes 24 fritters.

We love mashed cauliflower. My kids don't even realize it's not mashed potatoes. I steam the cauliflower and mash it just like I would potatoes. Add seasonings of choice - salt, pepper, a little garlic, onion and maybe some cream or half and half just to cream it up a bit. I'll eat cauliflower just about any way.

Bump!!
