Usually I keep a small container of buttermilk around as I make a lot of recipes which call for buttermilk. But, when I'm in a pinch, its nice to have a recipe for making my own buttermilk substitution. Most often, I have the two ingredients, milk and vinegar, necessary to make it on hand.

I made some delicious mashed potatoes, substituting cauliflower for some of the potatoes for savings in calories. They were delicious, and the recipe was simple! I was happy to see my kids eating lots of cauliflower, although they had no idea they were doing so.

I treated myself to a little comfort food with this tasty cauliflower macaroni and cheese just the other night. I can sit down to a bowl of this macaroni and eat a serving or two of veggies with the cauliflower without even noticing. Next time you crave a bit of comfort food on a chilly night, try making a batch of this tasty macaroni.
