Please tell your co-worker she has a blasted, immense, stupendous, recipe on her hands! Man, these are great in every, single, way! I didn't change anything except used up some red potatoes from my garden. They worked perfectly, and added a great visual, a speck of color to the cauliflower, and they turned out beautifully! Will make this often, because they are that gosh, darn, good! Loved, loved, the garlic just boiling away with the cauli, and the taters. Mashed right into the whole thing. Thanks for posting such a great recipe!
