Excessive Vegetables

My mother-in-law likes to bring stuff over. If she's coming for dinner, she'll swing by the farmer's market and pick up enough vegetables to feed roughly ninety-seven people. I usually try to get her to bring the unused vegetables home if they don't fit into my weekly menu because I really, really hate having stuff spoil in our fridge.

In November I found broccoli and cauliflower from the previous week that didn't make their way back so I started to think about what to make with it. I originally wanted to make a cauliflower and pea curry, but I had just made a curry the night before and Meredith isn't fond of peas anyway.

Returning to my computer I started reading up on the food blogs that I follow and almost immediately, I found a recipe for mashed cauliflower at Elana's Pantry to use as a starting point and immediately got to work. The result was a tasty lunch with enough leftovers for the following day.
