Thanks for the input!
I guess I will give it a try and maybe keep trying every once in a while if I don't like them right away.
Thanks!

Welcome to the family, jbonaiuto! :) :) :) :) :) :)

The peeps here are right.
I now enjoy things that I could not stand before I detoxed from sugar.


What you do today is what matters!

Welcome jbonaiuto to the forum.

Umpa is right, this cauliflower mashed potatoes is awesome.  I rarely ate cauliflower before and now it is one of my favorite veggies.  It just tastes so good and so much like real potatoes. I fix mine in the food processor after cooking till tender, then just add some Smart Balance margarine and some low fat sour cream for a yummy dish.

I work and take my food with me for lunch and the other gal keeps asking me what I brought today.  Sometimes she asks for a taste and really likes a lot of the foods.  She is diabetic and I keep telling her how much better she would be to try it the FTS way.  I tell her how Doug changed his life eating this way and how the cravings go away. I think that is the best part, just not to be craving all the time.

I cleared out all of my leaves from the garden since my pereniels are beginning to raise their little heads from the ground and by picking up the leaves, managed to pick up a nice case of poison ivy/oak/sumac, one of he above.  I've tried for a week to get it under control, but finally had to go to the doctors today as the arm was getting red and swelling.  He said I managed to pick up poison "something" and now I am on predesone for 8 days.  I don't usually like to take any meds but didn't have a chance on this one. One of the side effects is to make you eat more and tomorrow night we are supposed to get snow!  So much for Spring hanging around.

Have you compared the carbs on the low fat sour cream to the regular one?

Hi owensmath! :)

Low or lower fat "anything" is almost always higher in carbs.
That's because sugar is traded for fat in an attempt to "preserve" flavor.
What you do today is what matters!

There is a vegan sour cream that has little to almost no carbs and it looks and tastes the same, I know because I hate sour cream and I hated the vegan one too ;) AND it's VERY VERY low fat and NO cholesterol :D
May you be blessed in all your endeavors, but most importantly, may you be humble. God keep you.

I love mashed cauliflower, but like it even more as leftovers when it's cold.  ;D

On Easter I made cauli mash then added sour cream, cream cheese, bacon and chives and put it in the oven for awhile.  It was GREAT!!!!!
