As written I agree with others that this recipe for "mock mashed potatoes" would be mediocre at best. Whether you steam, boil, or microwave the cauliflower doesn't matter -- what's important is that it be cooked until VERY tender and that it be VERY dry before mixing in the other ingredients. Canola oil would be nasty in my opinion, and non-fat milk is not a good option either. Mix in just enough softened cream cheese (maybe 2 ozs.) and a very little butter, heavy cream and/or sour cream and puree in food processor (or blender, or hand mixer). Be light-handed with the cream as very little, if any, is needed. Too much and believe me, you'll end up with soup! Nice additions would be chives or roasted garlic, but that isn't even necessary. If you don't serve this immediately, place in a buttered, shallow casserole and bake at 375 degrees for about 15-20 minutes. This is a wonderful way to make cauliflower if prepared properly.

If you want this to be low carb, you should use heavy cream or whole milk instead of low fat milk and butter instead of oil. Low fat milk actually adds carbs to the dish. It would also taste better with heavy cream and butter. This way may be higher in fat, but it's much lower in carbs. I like to add a bit of sour cream and gruyere cheese, too.

I love cauliflower so I was surprised at how terrible this dish tasted, it didn't even smell good. I ate a few bites, but no one else would. I thought it was a waste of a good cauliflower head and the water needed to clean the dishes!

steaming as opposed to boiling is VERY important. I also use butter, a little cream cheese and cheddar cheese in the processor. It takes this over the top. I do not use oil or add milk, it makes it too thin. But I have to tell you, I did not like cauliflower at all before tasting "whipped cauliflower".

Eh, this was ok. I had to doctor it up so it had some flavor. The cauliflower itself is a little bit sweeter than i was looking for... so I roasted some garlic cloves and sauted some onions w/ some fresh rosemary and added everything to the whipped cauliflower.
