Delicious Food..Mashed Potatoes & 'Chips'


One of the things I love about low carbing is that you have so much to eat and the variety is endless. 
One such recipe is mock mashed potatoes using cauliflower. I cut a fresh head of cauliflower and put the florettes in a microwavable boel and then put a plastic over it. No need to add water to cook it this way. I cooked them really soft, then added some cream cheese, butter and heavy cream (1/2 & 1/2) I beat them with the beaters and seasoned the way I wanted. They were fabulous. I am not a potato lover anyway. I am adding a photo of them in the bowl. 
Another recipe I tried is making 'chips'. I put small slices of cheese (I used pepper jack)) and put them on parchment paper. I heated the oven to 400 and put them in for about 5 minutes. You want them flat, crisp, hard, but not burnt. Take them out, place on paper towel. If you want, you can season before you cook. I let them cool and they were so yummy with sour cream..I have put a photo of them also on the plate
