     Delicious! I used Laughing Cow garlic & herb cheese instead of cream cheese and still got the creaminess. I'll definitely be making this again. - 9/8/10

     This was good but a little to "mushy" for me. - 6/8/10

     I used lowfat sour cream instead of cream cheese since i didnt have any on hand. Also used a little bit of smoked cheddar. excellent!! - 10/19/09

     Just made this and it is delicious! So creamy and rich. Great way to get those veggies in! I did the cauliflower in my Instant Pot. Placed the florets in a steamer insert for 3 minutes, cooked on high pressure, manual release. - 1/3/19

     Husband hates cauliflower, but he loved this! We are trying to eat healthier but his snobby palate makes it difficult...thanks for this one! - 5/6/13

     Love this! Prefer to mash rather than use the food processor - 4/22/13
  • EXCELDREAM
     Very tasty, but I found neither the blender or food processor were adequate. I think mashing and mixing like potatoes would probably be better. I'll definitely be making it again. - 4/1/13

     This is amazing! I used reduced fat garden vegetable flavor cream cheese, and used a potato masher and left the cauliflower chunky. The lauching cow cheese sounds good, will try that next time! - 11/3/12

     Really disliked it. Actually, this is the first SparkRecipe I have been dissatisfied with. My taste buds must be different from the other raters. This tasted neither like cauliflower nor mashed potatoes. :( - 10/17/12
  • MRSHILL2
     I've tried many cauliflower recipes and this is the best I've found! - 3/30/12

     Very good. Only change next time would be to use Velveeta rather than shredded for more smoothness. - 3/11/12
  • RACHAELSREALM
     cant wait to try it - 2/23/12
  • ASHORY
     AHHHHH...MAZING! This was so good I almost felt like I shouldn't have been eating it!I did add the Garlic as my husband and I LOVE Garlic but would be super tasty without it. It was a little mushy next time will dry with paper towel before blending. I would eat this as a meal it's THAT good! - 1/6/12

     Very good! This recipe is all about the seasoning. Pepper and garlic are two of my favorite seasonings so this was perfect! Just add your favorite seasonings and you'll love it as well! - 7/1/11

  • MADEINNYC
     WOW!!! I am eternally grateful to you for turning me and my son in to cauliflower lovers. This is the first mashed cauliflower recipe that I have ever had that actually tastes like mashed potatoes and nothing like cauliflower!! You're a life saver! - 4/6/11
  • EYEWILLLOSE

     Absolutely delicious!! Definatly going to make over and over - 3/22/10
  • AITUTAKI28
     My duaghter and I love this. I used only 1/4 cup of reduced fat cheddar cheese to save some calories and it was still delicious. I also omitted the paprika because I wasnt sure my daughter would like it. Very good! - 3/6/10
  • HOLMQUISTM
     Thanks for this recipe! My husband and I (both cauliflower haters) loved this. I knew I would but he wasn't sure. Then he told me he would eat this instead of mashed potatoes anytime. I used a 16oz size bag of frozen cauliflower but kept all other ingredients the same. - 1/31/10
