SOUTH BEACH CAULIFLOWER MASH WITH CHIVES

Steps:

• Combine cauliflower, garlic cloves, and broth in a large saucepan. If cauliflower is not completely covered by the broth, add water until just covered. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to medium-low, and simmer until cauliflower is tender, about 12 minutes.
• Reserve 2 Tbsp of the cooking liquid and drain cauliflower (don't dry it, but allow it to drain fairly thoroughly). Transfer cauliflower and garlic to the bowl of a food processor, and process until smooth, pulsing in one or two tbsp of the reserved broth, if necessary, to moisten mixture. You might want to use fat free cream cheese during this step instead of the broth for extra body and creaminess. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Just before serving, stir in chopped chives. Serve warm.

SOUTH BEACH FRIENDLY CAULIFLOWER

Steps:

• Break cauliflower into bite-size florets.
• Saute in olive oil, adding more oil when (and if) necessary, till cauliflower begins to brown.
• Add the garlic (more if you like).
• Stir to combine flavors.
• Season with salt, pepper, Splenda and red pepper flakes (if desired).
• Optional: Spinach can be added if desired. Place the fresh spinach on top of the cauliflower once it is browned to you liking. When spinach is wilted, stir to combine. Or, cook spinach separately and add to browned cauliflower, and combine.
