Rachael Ray's Smashed Cauliflower

"I found this recipe on a recent Rachael Ray 30 minute meals show and loved it! Smashed Cauliflower with cheeses. Rachael Ray used fresh cauliflower...I found it really expensive in the store, so I tried frozen...still so very good...everyone in my family LOVED it! She also said it was a low carb substitute for mashed potatoes. I am giving you MY recipe for the same dish."

  1. Despite the endless draining, mashing and cheese/butter additions, this ended up tasting like sauerkraut with cheese.
     
  2. I cannot give this enough stars. I used frozen cauliflower, sharp cheddar cheese and the new McCormick's Perfect Pinch in Parmesean Herb. This is wonderful and my DH had 3 helpings. A definite winner!
     
  3. Great substitute for mashed potatoes. Non cauliflower lovers will also love this.
     
  4. Wow- can't believe something so simple is SO good! I followed the recipe as written but halved the recipe as I only had one bag of cauliflower. We all LOVED this. My nine year old after cleaning the serving bowl asked if he could lick the spoon :) Next time I will make the full batch as we all wanted more. Will be making again and again!
     
  5. Great recipe , was looking for something fast , easy and tasteful . I used fresh cauliflowerand omitted the parmesan cheese . Even my 2 year old enjoyed it . Thanks for sharing !
