Cauliflower to the Rescue!
I was having a really bad craving for something starchy the other night. Had already picked up some cauliflower and thought....hmmmm, it's sort of ricey when it's overcooked. So, I boiled it, drained it, threw parmesan cheese, basil, butter, pepper, and bacon into it, gave it a good stir and Voila! It was like mashed potatoes! My husband couldn't believe it was low carb and said it tasted better than potatoes!
I'm just so thrilled to make this discovery, and now I see from looking at some recipes, that it's already been discovered! Couldn't help tooting my own horn a bit, though!
Only thing was, I ate significantly more than a cup of this stuff. Dr. Atkins book said "If you are hungry, eat!" So I did. No weight gain either! This is so cool!
PS - I'm currently on Day 6 of Induction
