Whipped Cauliflower 

Mark Twain called cauliflower “cabbage with a college education.”  Cauliflower is high in vitamin C and is a fair source of iron.

6 cups cauliflower florets

1/3 cup heavy cream

3 tablespoons butter

3/4 cup grated Swiss cheese

1 tablespoon Dijon mustard

2 tablespoons chopped fresh Italian parsley

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/4 teaspoon white pepper

Microwave or boil cauliflower until tender. Drain well, transfer to a food processor with the cream, butter, mustard cheese and parsley. Process until mixture is a smooth and thick puree.  Season to taste with salt and pepper.

Serves 4 to 6
