I added chopped jalepenos and black pepper for more flavor. Yummy!

This was great! I used one pretty large head of cauliflower, skim milk, and 1/2 cup of cheese. No rosemary.

I don't know if I'd make this again. My family thought it was tasty but as a substitute for mashed potatoes, it was a total failure!
