So the next time you go to fire up that grill, try out some of these recipes!

Happy eating my friends and happy national burger day!

Good Afternoon Friends and Family!! It’s almost Friday hooray!

I thought I would share with you all today a fun and healthy recipe that I came across. It’s a unique twist on one of my favorite side dishes, mashed potatoes. It has the same great look and taste of mashed potatoes but with a healthy twist, you substitute potatoes for cauliflower. It’s an excellent way to fool your children into trying new vegetables and it tastes great too!

Cauliflower Mashed “Potatoes”

INGREDIENTS:

1 head of cauliflower
3 tablespoons milk
1 tablespoon butter
2 tablespoons light sour cream
1/4 teaspoon garlic salt
freshly ground black pepper
snipped chives

DIRECTIONS:

1. Separate the cauliflower into florets and chop the core finely.

2. Bring about 1 cup of water to a simmer in a pot, then add the cauliflower. Cover and turn the heat to medium. Cook the cauliflower for 12-15 minutes or until very tender.

3. Drain and discard all of the water (the drier the cauliflower is, the better) and add the milk, butter, sour cream, salt and pepper and mash with a masher until it looks like “mashed potatoes.” Top with chives.
