    You could try using a vegetable ricer instead of a food processor to yield more uniform grains.

    Definitely going to try this as I used to eat rice every single day before MFP. And I love cauliflower and have a partial head in the fridge now. This is going on my dinner list this week.

    Holy crap, rice is my worst enemy when it comes to not being able to eat sensible portions. This is GREAT! Thanks!

    I LOVE mashed cauliflower! I only get it at my parents' though. I don't have a food processor. Does a blender really work? I have one of those!

    I use caulil for a mashed potato replacement too! Quinoa is pretty good replacement for rice too.

    I used to do this (as rice & mash) when I did the Atkins diet, and I'd completely forgotten about it until I read this thread, so THANKS!

    Quinoa is higher in cals than rice (as I discovered today when making a 'healthy' salad for work lunches).

    I've been doing the caulimashed potato version for years. Makes a great sheppards pie topping. But this is a great idea as well. Thanks for sharing!
