This was so easy to make. My husband thought he was eating mashed potatoes. I think next time I will mix the green onions in but won't change anything else. We both enjoyed this very much. A keeper.

I enjoyed this as an alternative to mashed potatoes - it's always good to find something that reduces carb intake! It tastes like cauliflower but definitely looks like mashed potatoes! I am not a fan of ranch dressing, so instead I put in about a tablespoon of unsalted butter, 1/4 c. of sour cream, and some salt and pepper (but still garnished with green onion). It was very good and I will definitely make this again.

This recipe was good but to make it excellent I made some changes. I did not use ranch dressing, I instead mixed in butter,sour cream, salt, pepper and shredded cheddar cheese. I mixed it with an immersion blender to get the perfect light and fluffy consistency. I then topped it with shredded cheddar and green onions. It was great. I love mashed potatoes and I would definitely use this as an alternative.

This did not turn out the way I expected, tasted like cauliflower. Did not like the texture either. Will cook cauliflower the regular way, roasted in the oven with olive oil, salt & pepper.

Simple, fast, and satisfying. I added a dash of white wine to it.
