Cauliflower Parmesan

This recipe is from the Cooking with/for Disabilities Course in the eCGI

This is so easy and similar in consistency and taste to cheesy garlic mashed potatoes, but more nutritious. I love the fresh jarred, minced garlic; saves my fingers from the knife.

• 1 head cauliflower/cleaned, reserving the leaves/remove large stalk
  
• 1/2 c shredded Parmesan cheese (OR Parmesan and Romano mixed)
  
• 1/2 c light margarine (OR butter)
  
• 1/2 medium sweet onion/ grated
  
• 1 cloves garlic/ finely minced
  
• salt to taste
  

Steam cauliflower head or pressure cook until very tender/adding the leaves for the last 2-3 minutes in steamer or final minute in pressure cooker. Saute the grated onion and the garlic in margarine or butter, just until tender, but not browned. Mash with the cauliflower and cheese, adding cheese a bit at a time, salting to taste. Serve with the leaves as side garnish.

*You can use your food processor to to prep the onion, if a hand grater is difficult for you. I have used both methods to equal success
