Cauliflower fried rice.
Roasted Cauliflower

Don't overdo it on the cheese. And maybe look at getting fresh cauliflower and pan roast it or steam it. Super easy.
Tastes slightly peppery to me.
Honestly, I managed to convince my unhealthy friend to eat those frozen bags of mixed veggies. The stuff with peas, corn, string beans, and carrots. Just microwave up a bag, pour out the water, and have a snack bag of naturally sweet veggies.

yea I was gonna make spaghetti, but ive been having way too many carbs, so went with this.. think ill make it a permanent thing
Yeah, this. Olive oil, salt, pepper, and whatever else you like. It's great.
Cauliflower is so good. You can do a lot with it, as evidenced by the vegan community using it to substitute crusts. While that's not my forte, I do think it's cool. I like cauliflower steamed, fried, baked, or raw, it doesn't matter. My mother used to dip it in egg and flower and fry it. Gave a great texture.

yea portion control is hard for me, sometimes I like just stuffing my face and drowning myself with food and beverage, seems like this cali-bud will make me not guilty about having a BIGASS plate
Oven roasted romanesco, cauliflower, Brussels sprouts and Jerusalem artichokes are killer.

DUMB fucking question, but this bag https://www.publix.com/pd/greenwise-cauliflower-organic/RIO-PCI-524983 can I do more with it besides steaming it?
My local supermarket chain sells these bags of mixed broccoli and cauliflower florets that can be thrown into the microwave. I eat them raw straight out of the bag.
Yeah, I love cauliflower. Try to saute it up with garlic and a bit of salt instead of dumping cheese on it if you want to cut calories.
Doing keto and cauliflower rice has been a godsend. In fact for lunch I'm making chicken fried cauliflower rice using left over rotisserie chicken. Tastes amazing.
Roasted cauliflower is incredible. Toss it in a bit of oil, salt, and pepper (and tumeric if you're pairing it with indian food) and bake it until it's withered and delicious. Roasted cauliflower soup is also fantastic, but good luck roasting cauliflower and then not eating it all before you even get to that stage.
I do not think much of cauliflower as a rice substitute or keto bread alternative, though.

Fried rice (use brown rice, healthier and has a great texture and nutty flavor)
Quinoa or Faro salad with arugula/kale, goat cheese and other veggies with a balsamic vinaigrette
Make a curry with cauliflower and paneer
Minestrone

Cauliflower cheese with leek. Loved it before I went keto.
Now it's heavenly with a lovely steak and some Asparagus tips.

But the fatty cheese keeps you full much longer so you'll end up eating less calories for the day.
My wife made cauliflower lettuce wraps with a gochujang/peanut sauce and the way they were cooked created this crazy texture similar to chicken.
But really, just buy a head of cauliflower. Cut it up and you can do the exact same things as that bag. Probably cheaper, too.

It's the sulphur, which all the cruciferous veggies have - broccoli, cauliflower, cabbage, etc.
It grants your farts extra pungency for the same reason.
Vegetables are great. Just don't go crazy adding stuff on and they're pretty much all low calorie.

do I steam and then make those recipes, or do I use the frozen flowerets
Probably frozen or thawed. Use up and the bag and buy fresh cauliflower next time. If you're intimidated by a full head Trader Joes sells it prechopped in a bag. It's more expensive, though.

The hydration memes should switch to eating more veggies if they wanted to actually try and accomplish something. People even with bad diets get plenty of hydration. People on average suck ass at getting their veggies.
Why are you destroying the benefits by adding Parmesan cheese?! It's no longer 90 calories!

I'm pulling your leg
Cauliflowers are delicious raw and don't smell bad. Go for it!
70-75 percent of my daily calories comes from fat. Cheese is awesome.
Oh yeah, the different colors do taste quite different. I think purple is the nuttiest, but the plain ol' white is still my favorite.
