Day 1 Potatoes Au Gratin

Welcome to Day 1 of the Faux Health, Faux Sure Series

Potatoes Au Gratin

Ingredients Needed:

1 head of Cauliflower
1/2 c. light Velveeta (sliced very thin)
1/4 c. Reduced Fat Cheddar
1 tablespoon Calorie/Fat Free Butter (parkay spray)
1/4 C. Panko Bread Crumbs
1/4 c. Parmesan cheese

Preheat Oven to 350*
Take your Cauliflower and cut up into Small pieces
And Boil under fork tender ( about 10 minutes)
Drain your Cauliflower and move over to a baking dish
Add your low calorie butter and get to mashing
You don't have to mash, but I think it taste a little cheesier!
Once mashed into the consistency you like, Sprinkle with Parmesan, 
cheddar, and Velveeta
Once melted, top with Bread Crumbs and Broil to brown and crunchy
{Yum}

Now, on to Nutrition
The dish serves 4-6 people, and the nutrition information is per serving (not dish)
I would also like to point out that I am in no way a nutritionist
I read labels and make sure that my family consumes healthy alternatives when possible
If my picky husband and 3 year old love it, you will too!

  1. Yum! I never tried cauliflower until this past summer, but I have to say I'm hooked! It's such a versatile, creamy vegetable! I'll definitely be trying this. Thanks for posting!
