Yul Lose Posted March 4, 2016 Share Posted March 4, 2016 Pay attention pards. Mrs. Lose is on a healthy eating campaign and tonight she served me mashed potatoes that weren't mashed potatoes. It was cauliflower poorly disguised as mashed potatoes. Should your better half mention that she's got this recipe that tastes just as good as mashed potatoes you're probably going to get cauliflower that's been run through the blender and presented as the real thing. You've been warned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marshal Mo Hare, SASS #45984 Posted March 4, 2016 Share Posted March 4, 2016 do you feel the sneaky, deceitful little micronutrients running through your bloodstream? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Calamity Kris Posted March 4, 2016 Share Posted March 4, 2016 I have heard of mixing the two to create "healthier" mashed potatoes but not a complete substitution. Good luck, Yul. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yul Lose Posted March 4, 2016 Author Share Posted March 4, 2016 I really care about you folks and my warning was intended as a community service. From what I see there's half a blender full still to be "enjoyed". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subdeacon Joe Posted March 4, 2016 Share Posted March 4, 2016 I rather like it, myself. It doesn't taste quite like mashed potatoes, but close. Mash some parsnips in there too and it makes a real nice "potato pancake." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blackwater 53393 Posted March 4, 2016 Share Posted March 4, 2016 If I want cauliflower, I want cauliflower! Some butter 'n' garlic, a tiny touch of salt, and a liberal sprinkling of black pepper. Â If I want mashed potatoes, I want them mashed, not creamed or blended. I want 'em a little lumpy and very buttery! I'll take care of the rest.. Â Never the twain shall substitute for one another. Â HEY !! Yul!! Your wife will probably regret it in a little while!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marshal Mo Hare, SASS #45984 Posted March 4, 2016 Share Posted March 4, 2016 I'll give her points for trying, but some guys just want their meat and potatoes, don't mess with it.

Noz Posted March 4, 2016 Share Posted March 4, 2016 Mashed cauliflower ain't bad but is no substitute. One of my friends wife slices a cucumber into the potatoes before she boils them for mashed potatoes. Different! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rye Miles #13621 Posted March 4, 2016 Share Posted March 4, 2016 I use instant mashed potatoes a lot, but I'm by myself here so I have an excuse!! No cauliflower in my spuds!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cat Brules Posted March 5, 2016 Share Posted March 5, 2016 I'm on a "diet." Rule #1 is that I don't eat substitutes or de-octaned versions of anything. If I think it isn't good for me, I don't eat it. I sure like cauliflower, broccoli and other vegetables, but gosh, I'd prefer not whirling them all up and calling them something else. Â My advice to you, though, is "eat'em and shut up." :-) :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marshal Mo Hare, SASS #45984 Posted March 6, 2016 Share Posted March 6, 2016 I like to mash my potatoes with a little garlic, Sometimes 60-40 with celeriac. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Assassin Posted March 6, 2016 Share Posted March 6, 2016 Gravy!!!!!!!! Everything is better with gravy. Cauliflower is the new mashed potato, my wife just told me so. If you bake mashed up cauliflower and season it real good it's quite tasty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
