Well I think we have become addicted to cauliflower. I made more of the pizza crusts and we are using them for sandwiches. I have made Mushroom Leek "Rice" (recipe below) twice over the past 10 days and Saturday I made this recipe for
Mock Garlic Mashed Potatoes I used low fat cream cheese and no butter and they were FAB-U-LOUS!!! I have gone through 6 heads of cauliflower in the past 10 days. My husband has lost 8lbs so far and I think I have around 6lbs (haven't weighed myself since last week). This diet is easier than I thought it would be. Thursday we start Cycle 2 which means even more recipes!!
