Cauliflower is a good substitution for many of the carbs that are so prevalent at Thanksgiving dinner. This recipe is true comfort food. It is filling but not as heavy as stuffing or mashed potatoes. This is an old recipe from around the early 70s. It is served often on my family’ holiday dinner table. It was easy to lighten. I use the low fat, low sodium cream soup and fat free or low fat mayo or Miracle Whip. The substitutions do not alter the quality at all. Enjoy!
