Back in Place

I am not usually this early,

but the Christmas decorations are coming down today.

It is cleaning day,

just the living room and kitchen are left.

I am branching out in the recipe world again.

I am fairly confident in the gf - cf realms,

but we are entertaining a family with yet another diet need.

So ...

I am trying a "just like" potato recipe to go with a ham.

I haven't tried it yet, but sometimes you just have to risk it.

Twice Baked Mashed Cauliflower

1 large head cauliflower florets, cut off stem

3 c chicken broth

1 tbsp butter

1 c shredded cheddar

1 clove minced garlic

1/2 -3/4 c sour cream

salt and pepper

Boil cauliflower in broth - 10-15 min.

Drain cauliflower well.

Process in food processor  1/2 c sour cream, 3/4 c cheese, and garlic.

If not creamy enough, add remaining 1/4 c sour cream.

Add salt and pepper to taste.

Use butter if desired.

Place mix in baking dish.

Top with remaining cheese.

Bake 350* for 20 minutes.

I also found a new cookie recipe ... pumpkin cream pies!

We'll see how it goes.
