Buzziness #17 Cauliflower? hmmm

Okay... I never was a fan of the white broccoli, let alone broccoli until I was an adult and even then it had to be smothered in mayo, cheese or ranch dip!  Well, once I tried cauliflower prepared smooshed-up (okay not the best descriptor!), my taste buds fell in love.  When complete they look like mashed potatoes, and taste delicious.  I have prepared them two ways: the healthy and yummy or the not so healthy but really yummy.  You choose!

Healthy Cauliflower Recipe
1 head of cauliflower 
salt and pepper to taste

Cut the cauliflower into florets and steam.  I use my rice cooker.  Once thoroughly cooked put in a food processor and blend away.  Add salt and pepper as you go and taste.  That is it! Can it be any easier?

The "Really Yummy" Cauliflower Recipe
1 head of cauliflower
1 cup of grated cheese (I use sharp cheddar)
1 cup of sour cream
1/4 or more of a cream cheese brick
salt and pepper to taste

Steam the cauliflower and add to the food processor.  Add all the yummy ingredients and blend away.  A great side dish to any meal. 
Looks like mashed potatoes, but it's not!
