Healthy Cauliflower Recipes - Wonderful Ways To Eat Cauliflower

Healthy Cauliflower Recipes

Is it seriously Monday already?! I've got to say, this weekend passed too fast. It has been a wet, cold weekend here in Cali, so I spent plenty of time catching up on work. Did any of you have a crazy fun weekend?

Today Amy and I are in the kitchen making some comfort foods. Believe it or not, cauliflower makes an incredible substitute to mashed potatoes and fried rice. No kidding! You just have to try these 2 recipes! They're so simple and incredibly healthy. Take a look at the chart below for all of the incredible health benefits of cauliflower.

To be honest, I didn't even realize it was filled with this numerous nutrients until I looked it up. I mean who doesn't need a little extra vitamin C, K, folate, fiber, B6, and who would have guessed, Omega 3 fatty acids?! Is it crazy to admit that I'm truly excited about cauliflower?

Now, to make Mashed Cauliflower, steam the cauliflower until it is truly soft. You should be able to easily stick a fork in it. Then simply toss the whole head in the blender with about 1/4 of a cup of liquid (I made use of almond milk, but nonfat cows milk works well too) and blend it up until it's smooth. We added a little garlic salt, pepper, and olive oil and it was so good!
For the 'rice' recipe, grate the raw cauliflower in the food processor or with a hand grater like you would cheese. You can then steam or saute it in a pan. Amy and I stir fried it in a little bit of sesame oil, soy sauce, along with a Chinese 5-spice blend. It ended up just like fried rice and was so great. Even Gunter, who By no means eats cauliflower, polished it off Quickly!

I've been making mashed cauliflower for years, but the rice was new to me and I have to say, I can't wait to try it with different spices. I think curry could be fantastic too. What do you all have to say?

I look forward to hearing how you all like these two recipes in the Comments section below, as well as any new ideas you may have. Enjoy your President's Day and see ya on Wednesday!
