Surprise "Mashed Potatoes"
I made the South Beach diet fake mashed potatoes on Sunday night. They're basically pureed cauliflower with a little fat-free half and half and a couple of sprays of I can't believe it's not butter. Sounds delish, right? I will tell you that you can't tell that they're not potatoes when they're sitting the bowl, and the taste was as you would expect, but of course a sad comparison to the real thing. The best part about the whole endeavor for me was to offer some to my little brother without telling him it's true ingredients and watching him grimace in disgust. Hee. Needless to say, the surprise Mashed Potatoes was the loneliest bowl on the dinner table.
