Faux Food

My husband and I decided to finally make a conscious effort to eat good and exercise (p90x, ahh!) regularly. Though extremely hard, especially for two choco-holic, cereal loving, snackers... We both are extremely glad we made this decision. The hubs has lost 8 lbs in our 3 week journey, I've lost 2 (hah I swear Im not binge eating while no ones looking), but weight loss is really not my goal. Im getting toned, have more energy and just all around feel better.

We are making every effort to eat at home and pack lunches, thus I will no longer be a regular of Wendy's for lunch (sad that the drive thru people know me!) and one meal I made the other day is definitely share worthy! Reducing carbs and calories led me to find alternate recipes and foods. I stubbled upon "Faux" Mashed Potatoes and was intrigued...The potato is substituted with Cauliflower and boy were they OH so delicious. The recipe I used was from Food Network, I tweaked it a little to my taste but here it is if you would like to try it.


Paired along with Curry Chicken & Snap Peas is was an amazing meal, our house was full of such amazing aromas and our belly's were full with an amazing meal.

mmmmm.... enjoy!
