Thank goodness for husbands...

Very nice!

Awwwww that is so sweet!!! Recipe by any chance or is it pattented?

There is no particular recipe.  He makes the faux cauliflower mash potatoes by steaming the cauliflower and mashing it with lite sour cream and Parmesan cheese (just a little sprinkle) salt, pepper and a touch garlic. The sauce is made by browning onion and garlic, adding lean ground beef, than adding spinach, olives, wine and marinara sauce. I think he also adds some fresh spices (Italian style, think fresh basil, oregano).  He cooks this down and makes it into a soupy sauce and puts it over the cauliflower mash.  It is really good and very lite.  A meal is well under 200 calories (maybe even closer to 150) and is very filling.

Ah you see! I would not have guessed he uses ground beef but perhaps strips of filet mignon quickly stir fried with the basil, garlic and onions, sort of thai style. I will try it with the ground beef. Thanks for the tips! Also the faux mashed potato/cauliflower mix with the touch of sour cream and parmesan and garlic sounds great!

He basically makes an Italian style low cal meat sauce with spinach added in for extra vitamins.  It looks like thick pasta sauce but instead of using pasta, he pours it over the cauliflower.  It is a great dish that even my children like.

If I had not had dinner already I'd be trying this out right now!
