Cook yourself Thin

I have been watching this show on Lifetime and it has some pretty good recipes to make meals we all love a lot less fattening. And I am always looking for ways to make my meals more heathly. So last night we tried the following recipe:

Cauliflower "Mashed" Potatoes
1/2 head large cauliflower, broken into florets
1/2 c. nonfat buttermilk
1 lb yukon gold potatoes, peeled, and cut into cubes
1/2 - 3/4 c. low fat milk
salt
pepper
1 tbs butter

Steam cauliflower for 15 minutes. While doing that boil and cook the potatoes until soft. Puree cauliflower with buttermilk and 1/4 c. of the milk until very smooth. When potatoes are done, drain and mash. Add cauliflower puree, 1/4 c. milk, 1 tsp salt, 1/4 tsp pepper. Stir until the two are blended. Add more milk if needed and the butter. Stir in desired herbs.

Please enjoy..Brian really did which in our household means it is a WINNER!
