Cauliflower and Peas with Cream SauceCauliflower is an underrated vegetable. It has very little flavor so you can use it as a low carb substitute for starchy foods. For example, try it as a substitute for potatoes in mashed potatoes, blend it up into a cream sauce, put it in a food processor to make cauliflower rice, or make it into a crust for pizza.
