use chicken broth instead of water to give it more flavor also

I suppose if you really like cauliflower, you might like this, but I didn't. In my opinion, it definitely needed a stronger seasoning and even then I don't think I would have liked it. It was easy to prepare though.

Although it definately resembled mashed potato it was a little hard to get past the underlying taste difference. Maybe its just because im too fond of potato in the first place. Not bad, but not for me.

I added 5 mozzarella pearls, 2 tbsp black pepper, 1 tsp of roasted garlic, and a pinch of thyme. Very nice. I kept it a bit lumpy cause I like my mashed that way and I do like cauliflower. VERY FILLING!

Great alternative to mash potaotoes and low carb noodles. I added a little garlic salt and butter, yum yum. Even my husband loved it and he is very particular. Next time I am going to add cheese.
