there's a recipe in the South Beach Diet book.

Ingredients
* 2 cups cauliflower florets
* 1/2 ounce I Can't Believe It's Not Butter
* 1/2 ounce fat-free half-and-half
* 1 pinch salt
* 1 pinch fresh ground black pepper

Directions
1. Steam or microwave the cauliflower until soft. Puree in a food processor, adding the butter spray and the half-and-half to taste. Season with salt and pepper.



I just found this recipe too.


I tried the first one when I tried the SBD and it was pretty good! Way less calories and good way to get in your cruciferous veggies! I think I'll have to put that on the list and make some later this week!

If you have a handheld blender, that is what I'd use to make them. When I made them once, I just tried mashing by hand and they were a bit gross because of the lumps.

let me know what you think of them - I'm on South Beach, and while they tasted yummy like cauliflower, I definitely didn't buy into thinking that "they're just like mashed potatoes!!:. Plus I had a little snafoo with the blender and they sprayed all over.. haha! good luck!

I made the one from the South Beach Diet one tonight. It was really good, but will take time to get used to the texture of the cauliflower. I think that my taste buds wanted more of a mashed potatoe texture. It was good, but will have to get used to it
