These look great! We just had cauli rice for dinner. I'm definitely doing the grilled cheese for the kids!

I've tried most of the items mentioned above except the grilled cheese. Non Nom Paleo's fried "rice" is great, and this website has a lot of cauliflower recipes : http://www.theironyou.com/2015/02/12-cauliflower-crust-recipes.html .

We like to make the cauliflower crust pizza from any number of websites. You really have to take the trouble to wring out as much of the moisture as possible for best results. ( I always burn my hands ).

But our favorite in my house is my own cauliflower cheese soup. Just cover chopped cauliflower and onions with chicken bone broth and cook until tender, seasoning to your liking. If we are not watching carbs, we'd add a bit of potato, or leeks, or celery.... or anything you like. I either mash with a potato masher after it is done, or use my immersion blender right in the pot as I add heavy cream and if it needs to be thickened a bit, a little arrowroot powder, and as much cheese as you want. Top your bowl with more grated cheese and bacon if you like. For a silky texture, I put it all in my Vitamix and it is heavenly.

Grr... my computer won't play the video, just the music! What 4 ideas do they share? I've done cauli crust pizza, cauli mac & cheese, cauli rice, and mashed cauli... I've had this cauli pizza casserole on my to do list for awhile: http://www.ibreatheimhungry.com/2013/05/pepperoni-pizza-cauliflower-casserole-low-carb-and-gluten-free.html
Are there other things I haven't thought of? (I have 5 heads of cauliflower in the fridge, they were on sale so I stocked up!)

Oh do try the pizza casserole! I did it for my family and they LOVED it! Faster and easier than the pizza crust but same taste.

Can you use frozen cauliflower or should it always be fresh?

From what I understand most of the recipes call for fresh if the recipe starts by making cauliflower rice since it has a lower water content than frozen and hasn't been blanched. It makes it easier to properly grind up. I would rather use frozen though just because of price

The mashed cauliflower recipe from I Breathe I'm Hungry is part of what convinced me I could drop potatoes and go low carb.
I made a test batch while I was still dairy and meat free...
And ate the WHOLE THING. OMG so good.
I used an immersion blender to puree it when I made it again for Thanksgiving. It was awesome.

I'm pretty excited to try the pizza crust myself!

The cauliflower pizza crust sucked hot, was decent cold, but I like a cheese/egg crust. Once I up carbs some, I might try fathead...

I am not a fan of pretending cauliflower is a starch. I've not been happy with anything I've made with cauliflower, other than a nice tray of roasted cauliflower. I'm much happier cutting out mashed potatoes than ruining cauli to make something that does not even come close to mashed potatoes.

Mashed cheesy cauliflower, here I come!
