While I'm not on any type of diet, this still made a wonderful side dish!!! I tripled the recipe and glad I did because it disappeard. I seasoned it with salt, pepper and garlic powder. This is a different way to prepare cauliflower...we loved it! Thanks for sharing. :-)

I boiled my cauliflower in chicken broth til very soft , drained the broth and added remaining ingredients plus chopped chives. I used an old fashioned potato masher. I placed mixture in casserole dish, topped with cheddar cheese and baked til melted. UMMMMMMMMMMM.
