Okay my friends, this is a great recipe.  I just made it up, and had it this evening. It is easy, and so delicous. I thought I was eating whipped potatoes.

Take 1 fresh califlower and remove greens and quarter it.  Put it  into a large pot of boiling water.  About 20 minutes later, see if it is very soft.  If it is, remove and drain well.  Put it into a blender until smooth.  Add 1/3 c to 1/2 c of dry powdered milk.  Salt and pepper to taste.  2 tb. butter or margarine. 4 to 6 tb. of parmasian cheese.  Mix it all in the blender until very smooth, and then serve.

You get a veggi in without the carbs of potatoes.

Yummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmy!!!

I had this the other night at my girlfriends. It is really good. She mixes it with fat free half and half and I can't believe it's not butter. REally good.

I tried doing it once and was not impressed. I prefer my cauliflower raw with ranch dip.
Paula T. Feb 16, 2009, 3:55am EST
I love cauliflower made this way!

What kind of diet are you on?Potatoes are good for you,they have a lot of potasium good for the heart.you can mash them with skim milk.
Did your dr. tell you not to eat them?

I have no problems with potatoes, I agree with Elaine, it's what you put in or on them that makes the dish "bad" for you. But I also love cauliflower and will definitely give this a try.

I tried this once and it just didn't work for me. Of course, I'm not the best cook.
