Atkins Diet Recipes: Fauxtatoes

Uploaded by: bowulf
Video Description:
My second cooking show on how to make low carb comfort foods. Fauxtatoes are a great dish to have at Thanksgiving or for those who typically have to fight to get their veggies. A couple of my kids and my wife even make cameo appearances in this video. It's the least I can do for all the taste testing I make them endure as I try new recipes. My non-low-carbing family members even like this recipe as an alternative to starchy mashed potatoes.
Try this recipe; I think it'll be a hit with you as well!
Recipe:
1 Head Cauliflower
2.5 TBS Butter
1/3 cup Heavy Cream
1 Chicken Bouillon cube
1 tsp salt
White pepper to taste
Directions:
* Cook Cauliflower until fork tender. Drain well.
* Place cooked cauliflower and other ingredients (crush bouillon cube first) into the food processor. Run on high until consistency of mashed potatoes. You may need to scrape the sides of the bowl a couple times to prevent lumps.

OMG!!! These are ... ( 1 year ago by Amandandoug)

OMG!!! These are sooooooooooo SOOOOOOOOOO Good!!!
And as for all the questions about the calories, 2.5 Cups cauliflower is 71 calories, 4 tbsp. heavy cream is 200 calories and 4 tbsp. butter/margarine is 300ish? depending on the brand you use.
Soo the entire bowl of Fauxtatoes is only about 500 calories total.

Array ( 1 year ago by enaime)

Carbs:
2.5 c Cauliflower (fresh, cooked) 12.74 g carbohydrate - 6.4 g fiber = 6.34 net carb
4 T heavy cream 1.67 g carbohydrate
Butter and margarine have no carbs worth mentioning.
So net carbs for the whole bowl would be right around 8 net/impact carbs. Pretty good, especially since you'll probably get 4 servings out of it at about 2g each!
