Chicken with olive oil, red bell peppers, balsamic vinegar, chopped flat leaf parsley and a shake of red pepper flakes, salt and pepper. 

Also made home made croutons out of left over bread - which will be yummy or like flavored bits of the hardest substance known to man.  :)

Hey Leanna. Cauliflower Mac n cheese sounds interesting. How do you make it? Is it healthier than actual pasta?

 

Cauliflower makes a great replacement for low cal mac and cheese, I do it all the time too.

Another trick is to use a rice pasta, I like the brown rice pastas because they cook and act just like the wheat pasta. But beware that rice proucts are high in sugar content so if you are watching your blood sugar pay attention.

NOTE: you can also use cauliflower in place of rice.. its called cauliflower rice...( google it )... its really easy, you just process the cauliflower until its a rice size consistency. I cook it with a bit of olive oil and garlic in a saute pan, it cooks really quick.  

 

Your cauli mac & cheese looks way better than mine Leanna :)

 

WOW! It's been Nine months since I visited this thread... :wacko:
