Lately people started to switch potatoes with cauliflowers. I saw how people make “potato” mash from cauliflower, and then I saw “potato” salads with cauliflower. We like cauliflower, so why not to give it a try. I made them for lunch and you know – it was really nice to get message from my hubby “Thank you, it was really delicious”. So I opened my lunch box and tasted them – I really enjoyed them. The main thing – don’t over boil cauliflower, it should be a little bit crispy. And if you don’t like mayonnaise, you can use sour cream or natural yoghurt – I tried with them when I was out of mayo. Just you will need to add more seasonings, and maybe add a few drops of lemon juice or vinegar.

Cabbage and minced meat bake
Rather healthy and satisfying dish for cabbage lovers. My family liked it a lot, but I have to warn you – from the portions in the recipe you will make a lot of it. So if you want just to try it – make from half of the recipe.
Cauliflower and broccoli bake
This meal is for cauliflower lovers 🙂 One of them is my little daughter. The other – me 🙂 The fact that my daughter ate this dish the next day too, shows that it is very delicious 🙂 Only I used only cauliflowers, but believe that with broccoli the taste would be great also.
Cauliflower bake with cottage cheese
At first when I saw this combination it looked a little bit weird. But then I thought that we all like cauliflowers, cottage cheese and cheese separately, so why not to try it all in one dish. My hubby was very happy 🙂 He ate really a lot. Children also evaluated this dish very good.
