    Look, Ma. I used my Jedi powers for good instead of sugary cookie evil today!

    My pictues are so big you can only see half of the dish. My sister claims the sheppard's pie looks like vomit but it sure was good. >.<

    Granolagrl, what shepard's pie recipe did you use? i've stumbled across several all with mashed cauliflower on the top. I've yet to make a mashed cauliflower that lived up to it's "mashed potato substitute" name. Perhaps I'm doing it wrong?

    Well, if you think of it as a 'substitute', it'll never quite fill the bill. It's a food in its' own right, and has a similar mouth feel as potato mash. ;)

    That's true, I try not to think "this is going to taste like mashed potatoes!" but even though I LOVE cauliflower, I still have been finding it bland when "mashed". Might have something to do with the water content. It's strange to me I guess, because I love cauliflower any other way hehe, even raw & plain!

    I made this for breakfast:

    Ridiculously easy, "restaurant-quality" according to my husband, and it looks so pretty and appealing too.

    I add scallions and garlic to my mashed cauliflower... even my potato eating friends are obsessed with it!

    Similar to mine. I add a gob of buttter, a splash of coconut milk and garlic salt, and blend it with a food wand. It whips up smooth and creamy - garlicky and buttery.

    Yum!

    I always add some cloves of garlic, the scallions are a great idea, I've got some sitting in my fridge now!

    Sweet potato and an egg for the top. Cashew butter, stock, and some coconut flour for the sauce.
