I CAN'T BELIEVE IT AIN'T TATERS!!!!

So today I'm craving some really down home cookin' with meat and potatoes, but those starchy little buds are not so great for the waistline.  Thinking to my self, "Self, how do we deal with this potato dilema?", I remembered something I read.  Rushing to the store with utmost haste as I was having a craving, I bought the required components to confuse my brain and my belly, but satisfying myself all at the same time.  An what are you asking did I bring home from the produce section of Jewel/Osco?  Cauliflower.  This is a modified recipe that I found in the South Beach Diet Book, but it is all about taste.

Caulifower  x 2
Fat Free Half-n-Half
Skim Milk
Cayenne Pepper
Black Pepper
Red Pepper Flakes
Parsley
Garlic Powder or Fresh Garlic
Salt
French's Fried Onions

Clean and cut the cauliflower into small chunks and steam them until soft.  In a bowl, place the cauliflower and enough half-n-half to get them to the consitency of mashed potatoes.  Mash the daylights out of the  cauliflower in your best effort to get them to look like mashed spuds.  Add all the other ingredients to taste and serve hot with a sprinkling of French's Fried Onions as garnish.

Enjoy and Good Eating

Kind of looks like taters.

If you doctor it up right, it taste almost like mashed potatos, but you can eat a big helping and eat it guilt free.
