    Rico's Version of Mashed Cauliflower

    I improvised and made my own version of mashed cauliflower last weekend, and it turned out awesome and was easy. Makes about 4 Rico sized servings. Thought I'd share.

    Boil or steam 1 large head of cauliflower

    Mash and drain all excess water

    Mix in the following:
    1/4 cup of diced onions
    3 tbl spoons of sour cream
    3 or 4 "shakes" of Lawry's Seasoned Salt

    Top with 1 cup of sharp cheddar cheese

    Cover with foil, and put in oven preheated to 350 degrees for 15 minutes.

    EAT! Yum...Rico

    The sour cream is a good idea...bet it gives them a bit more body then using heavy cream....

    Good call! That's exactly why I used the sour cream Pirate! The whole mix holds together very well, just like potatoes. The heavy cream remains unopened in the fridge... Rico

    Handsome AND a cook too! 8)

    Good call on the sour cream! Never considered the properties of sour cream vs heavy cream in a mix like this. Thanks for sharing!

    Rico!!

    I tried this for breakfast today! YUM!

    I made a couple of changes (couldn't be bothered chopping up the onion lol)..

    I used a packet of frozen cauliflower and boiled it until soft with a vegetable stock cube..

    I set the water aside (soup for later!!).. and added a tablespoon of butter.. then added some sour cream.. mashed and mixed well.. then added a little parmessan cheese on top...

    This recipe is definately a keeper! My husband loved it! who wants to spend time peeling potatos when there is a tastier alternative anyway??

    I really don't like cauliflower....does it taste like cauliflower or do you just taste the spices and cheese, etc?
