Cauliflower & Potato Mashed

if its for getting someone to eat cauliflwr who doesnt like it, I had a great lower carb mashed potato at a restaurant I liked so much I asked for the recipe. It goes like this (I make it from my head, lol)
boil equal amouts of potatoes and cualiflower in separate pots. Boil cauli to very tender, boil potatoes to mash.
drain both, put in 1 pot and mash or whip with your rotary beaters to smooth with a little milk, and butter, garlic, salt, pepper, and throw in some parsley too.
Just make what you would to feed your family for mashed potatoes, but replace half the potato with cauliflower. No one will even know there is cauliflower in the potatoes!! sharet
(make sure cauli is drained very well)

Cake in a Coffee Mug in Microwave

1 Coffee mug
4 Tbsp regular Flour
4 Tbsp Sugar
2 Tbsp Cocoa
1 Egg
3 Tbsp Milk
3 Tbsp Oil
A small splash of vanilla
3 Tbsp Chocolate Chips( if you really want to live dangerous)

Add dry ingredients to mug mix wll with a fork. Add egg, mix thoroughly. Pour in milk ,oil and vanilla, mix well. Add chips if wanted) Put mug in microwave and cook for 3 minutes on 1000 watts microwave a little longer if you have a different wattage microwave. Cake will rise over the top of mug- Do not be alarm. Allow to cool a little; tip onto plate if desired. I usually eat it straight from the mug. I dip my spoon in icing and then dig into the cake and so on and so on. The reason its dangerous is you can now have chocolate cake anytime you want. I usually make up bags of the dry mix ingredients and then add the wet stuff whenever I want some cake!
