I’ve been trying to
broaden my supper menu and this week so far I think I have done a great job. I
can’t keep from bragging about this meal, not because it’s so special and
difficult to put together but because it is something new to me and is different
from my day to day menu. Last night I made salmon patties or as Lincoln would
call them salmon croquettes said in a really fancy almost proper British accent
LOL J, black eyed peas,
and …… mashed cauliflower. I heard about this in the kitchen at work a couple
weeks back and have been itching to try it out. I have been trying to cook and
eat healthier so I was really looking forward to this test run of something new
and different. It turned out amazing and I can honestly say that I wouldn’t
mind substituting mashed potatoes for mashed cauliflower every time. Don’t get
me wrong I’m still very much a meat and potatoes type of girl but mashed
potatoes could hit the road….but don’t hold your breath waiting on me to give up
all other forms of potatoes. I made my cauliflower just like I would my
potatoes…. Break into medium size florets, boil until fork tender, strain, and
then mix with mixer using the same ingredients you would your potatoes. I also
threw in a few cloves of garlic in my boiling pot to give it a bit of added
flavor. I was so impressed and excited with my supper! It turned out better
than I had hoped or even imagines cauliflower could. If you haven’t tried this
give it a whirl I’m sure you will be as impressed as I was.
