The only reason we still have cable is for the sake of The Food Network (I DVR Pioneer Woman and Barefoot Contessa) and ESPN (we all know that’s for Ben). Between running this website and my love of reading cookbooks like novels (if you do it too, check out The Well Plated Cookbook), I absorb a lot of recipe content. Thus, it is something special when one stops me in my tracks, sticks in my brain, and cannot be shaken until I’ve brought it to life (see also: Beef Bourguignon)....

Once the trendiest vegetable on the menu, cauliflower has proved itself to be an enduring classic. Raw or steamed cauliflower is ultra-mild (dare we say bland). That kind of neutrality is not ideal for a stand-alone side (and why I prefer Roasted Cauliflower to raw), BUT it does give cauliflower a special power. Cauliflower is a stellar low-carb swap for carby, creamy potatoes in many dishes. In addition to bulking up creamy soups like Broccoli Cheddar Soup and Cauliflower Chowder, cauliflower makes a surprisingly tasty stand-in for spuds in mashed form....
