Cauliflower is not very fashionable right now, but I predict a comeback soon -- it is so incredibly versatile! While I will freely admit that my Cauliflower Crush is not quite as comforting as real mashed potato, it is a lighter alternative that will not induce a carb coma and is still very satisfying. Besides, it is really really quick and easy to make... perfect for mid-week meals on the run.
