I use this recipe that was posted on the Atkins forums.
Fake Mashed Potatoes:
- 1 cooked head of cauliflower (drained and mashed- you have to get as much liquid out as humanly possible in order for it not to turn into soup! I press mine in a fine strainer with a spoon to get as much water out as I can. I also pat with paper towels)
- 1/8 c. of heavy whipping cream (do this to texture-add a little at a time)
- 4oz. of cream cheese (softened)
- salt/pepper
- (optional, but recommended: shredded parmesan cheese)
-------------------------------------------------------
Combine cauliflower, and cream cheese, and a little cream and mix with a mixer. Add more cream to texture and add salt and pepper, plus the optional Parmesan cheese, about 1/2cup. Mix until well blended. Put in a casserole dish and sprinkle as much Parmesan on the top as you like. Bake at 350 until top is golden brown.
I also use Linda's Low Carb Menus... great site. There is a recipe there for hash browns using cauliflower instead of potatoes.
