I am attempting to eat more fruits and vegetables, since it turns out they’re good for me, or something. So I’ve been experimenting with different things — at the moment, cauliflower.

I always thought I was sort of indifferent towards cauliflower, which seemed like an okay, if not promising, sign. So I chopped it up, cooked it (a somewhat weird combo of steaming and boiling), and mashed it. Well, I sort of mashed it. I got tired?

And it was a LOT of cauliflower.

So basically I ended up with an enormous amount of cooked cauliflower bits, which have been chilling in the fridge while I try to figure out something I’ll eat them with. I’ve been working on the ‘add stuff you like and it will taste better’ theory, which seems to mostly have the effect of making the cauliflower last a lot longer.

Right now I’m trying to finish off the last of it — cold, mixed with onions, hemp seeds, craisins, and cheese. It’s not horrible. But I would say this particular experiment lacks the crucial element of success. Next shopping trip: no cauliflower.

Fried cauliflower. Yum yum yum! Though it may defeat the purpose of the "healthy" bit... You can also have it just cooked, again, with potatoes, and butter. So good. :D

Huh. I guess the moral of this comment is fat tastes good. XD

Thanks! I'm sure I'll circle back around to cauliflower at some point. Just, maybe not Right Away!
