We have a local bakery that makes the most delicious cauliflower pizza ever! Thanks guys, I just decided what i’m having for lunch!
YUMMY YUM YUM!!
@tinamarie1974
YES! That’s one of my favorite methods too. I also just throw a handful of one or the other or both into stir-fries or pasta dishes or soups. And of course cauliflower is a good substitute for some carbs.
@galewarning@katbyter Sounds gross! Don’t know that i’d ever try it before you saying how good it is. I’ll keep my eyes peeled and connect with my adventurous side or adventurous taste buds! Lol What do I have to loose besides 8-12 bucks for a luxury cup of joe…
Cauliflower has no nutritional value.
Properly steamed broccoli is good. Cooked enough to be tender, but not overcooked to smell and taste like sulfur.
@Faffs
When I was little and my mom would make me eat it I would shove a bunch in my mouth and go to the bathroom and flush it down the toilet or try and feed it to my cat.
@Star2236 My kid brother hated peas. We were from the “you can’t leave the table until you eat your veggies” type home. He had gotten caught one time too many slipping his veggies to our dogs under the table and came up with a brilliant but short lived alternative. He carefully managed to roll his peas under the lip of his dinner plate. It looked like he had eaten enough of them to pass muster, and wasn’t caught until the dinner table was cleared, and there was a nearly perfect circle of peas on the table in front of his chair.
I love them both: steamed, roasted, grilled, stir-fried. Both are great added to mac-n-cheese. Cauliflower is awesome in curry. Broccoli cheddar soup is great too. I need them both to be fully cooked though; if raw, they upset my stomach.
i’ll eat cauliflower before i go anywhere near broccoli, and will occasionally even buy whole cauliflower on purpose to make cauliflower cheese. but in general, neither because there’s just plenty of veg i like better.
@ybmuG A learning experience, at least. Be respectful of trees and other large growing things. Never park under an Osage Orange, lean against a Saguaro, or loiter beneath a coconut palm.
Company broccoli: Steam the broccoli. Mix it with shredded cheddar cheese, salt and pepper (I like mixed peppercorns freshly ground) and something like a can of “cream of” soup or white cream sauce (cornstarch, water and butter). Line a casserole with crushed ritz crackers that are mixed with melted butter. Pour in broccoli mixture. Add a thin layer of the crushed ritz mix. Bake, covered in oven at 400° for 45 minutes. Last 10 minutes, remove the lid so it can lightly brown.
Man some of you people are fancy with your cooking. Here is how I do it. Take frozen veggie, put in glass container, put in microwave appropriate time, depending on the veggie add butter and/or salt or neither. Eat.
Did I say I hate to cook? That being said, if someone else cooks it I’ll eat fancy.
@Kidsandliz You can do the same things with fresh cauliflower or broccoli too … also, “the mix with salt-pepper-olive oil and spread it on a sheet pan” method that @tinamarie1974 mentioned is super easy and really good.
Broccoli vs. Blendtec and the results end up in my soup/chili.
I ate cauliflower pizza and liked it. Does that count?
@JT954
These are pretty good. If you don’t have Imo’s/Lena’s, that is.

YUMMY YUM YUM!!
I taste no difference.
Steamed broccoli, even my dog will eat it.
I like them both, but it depends how they’re cooked. Raw is okay too.
@Kyeh agree! Recently started tossing with EVOO, salt and pepper and putting in the oven. My new favorite way to enjoy both.
@tinamarie1974
YES! That’s one of my favorite methods too. I also just throw a handful of one or the other or both into stir-fries or pasta dishes or soups. And of course cauliflower is a good substitute for some carbs.
Cauliflower Rice is out of this world. Really, it’s the rice replacement on the Space Station.
@hchavers is that really true? Btw, it is delicious
I’ll happily take either, but I probably prefer broccoli. All the new ‘advances’ in things made with cauliflower are making it all the more attractive
Cauliflower raw, broccoli cooked
I like broccoli, raw or cooked.
Dislike cauliflower!
Slice cauliflower an inch thick, EVOO, s&p, grill it. Yes, it will hold together, but a grill mat or grill wok will help greatly.

@ybmuG ooohhh! Walnuts and lemon - nice!
@ybmuG That looks great!
@ybmuG oh yum - now I’m hungry again …
@stolicat @ybmuG
Funny how that happens!
Me too!
Meat!
Broccoli beef chow mein is sorta amazing. I can put down more than I like to admit and typically have to stop myself.
Why not broccoflower?
@steveml I did not know that they had the same name. You definitely deserve credit for being first on the thread.
/giphy romanesco
I like broccoli more myself. Cauliflower seems to be the new pumpkin spice – they’re putting that stuff in everything!
@katbyter
True - at least it’s better than kale.
I’m sick and tired of kale.
@katbyter Have you tried a cauliflower latte? To die for.
@galewarning @katbyter

@pmarin A growing fractal vegetable. Does it ever really digest, or does it just keep breaking into smaller and smaller versions of itself?

Properly steamed broccoli is good. Cooked enough to be tender, but not overcooked to smell and taste like sulfur.
@sjk3 Sure about that?

They’re actually the same plant, just two different cultivars…
So both, raw, steamed or stir fried.
I’ll eat them raw dipped in ranch but not cooked.
@Star2236 I’m the polar opposite. Can’t stand either of them raw, but love them steamed or roasted.

@Faffs
Lol, it’s so funny what kids try to pass off.
@Faffs @Star2236 We’d bribe each other to eat food we hated that the other kid liked. I don’t think my parents ever caught on.
I’ll eat either, but with cauliflower, I feel like I’m eating the ghost of some long-departed broccoli flower.
@rockblossom A head of cauliflower kind of reminds me of a pale brain. Maybe it just brings out the zombie in me.
@macromeh
braaaaaiiins!
@macromeh @rockblossom from the vegetable formerly known as cauliflower: purple brain, purple brain…
I love them both: steamed, roasted, grilled, stir-fried. Both are great added to mac-n-cheese. Cauliflower is awesome in curry. Broccoli cheddar soup is great too. I need them both to be fully cooked though; if raw, they upset my stomach.
POPSOCKETS! SPA KITS! POLLY POCKETS! AWESOME!
My favorite side with a steak is a nice steamed broccoli-cauliflower medley.
I love them both
i’ll eat cauliflower before i go anywhere near broccoli, and will occasionally even buy whole cauliflower on purpose to make cauliflower cheese. but in general, neither because there’s just plenty of veg i like better.
I’m sure people would like cauliflower more if, when cooking, it didn’t smell like ass.
I like broccoli and cauliflower but I love asparagus or brussel sprouts caramelized with onions and bacon.
I second what @pmarin said. Romanesco FTW!
I grow this much more successfully than cauli for whatever reason. One of my favorite veggies for sure!
@sillyheathen AND, one of the best examples of fractals in nature!
@ybmuG delicious delicious fractals!
/giphy homer drool
@sillyheathen @ybmuG It is really amazing how those little plants can read those college textbooks.
@pmarin Yeah. The last time I walked under a pine while mumbling about how dumb trees are, it dropped a Fibonacci sequence on my head.
@pmarin @rockblossom Well, that was a growth experience for you!

@AuntMean67 i made a similar cauliflower version of this with toasted sesame seeds, a sherry cream sauce and bread crumbs.
@AuntMean67 I have a friend who does this but tops it with prepared bisquick.
