SHRIMP AND CAULIFLOWER "GRITS"
Cauliflower can be sneaky--especially when it subs for corn in grits. Whether you're not a fan of regular grits or you're looking to add more vegetables to your diet, riced cauliflower simmered in water and finished with butter and Parmesan is an impressive alternative to the real thing.

Steps:
- Pulse about half of the cauliflower in a food processor until the florets break down into finer pieces about the size of grains of rice (it's totally fine if they clump; think of this step as cauliflower "rice" gone wrong). Transfer to a medium saucepan, pulse the remaining cauliflower and add that to the pan too. Add the milk, 1 tablespoon of the butter, 1/2 teaspoon salt and several grinds of pepper and bring to a simmer over medium-high heat. Simmer, stirring frequently, until the mixture is soft and smooth and looks like grits, about 10 minutes. Remove from the heat, stir in the Parmesan and adjust the seasoning with more salt and pepper if you'd like. Cover and keep warm.
- Season the shrimp with salt and pepper. Melt the remaining 2 tablespoons butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the shrimp, garlic and cayenne if using and cook, tossing, until the shrimp are pink and just cooked through, 3 to 4 minutes. Remove from the heat, add the parsley, lemon juice and 1 tablespoon water and stir to coat the shrimp with the sauce. Season with salt and pepper.
- Divide the cauliflower grits among shallow bowls and top with the shrimp and sauce. Serve with lemon wedges.
CAULIFLOWER SPAGHETTI ALFREDO WITH SHRIMP
Steps:
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the spaghetti and cook until al dente, then drain.
- Place a large skillet over medium-high heat and coat the pan with oil. Add the onions and cook until translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute. Add the cauliflower, 1 tablespoon salt and enough milk to partially submerge the florets. Increase the heat to high, and simmer until the cauliflower is very tender, about 15 minutes.
- Very carefully transfer the cooked cauliflower mixture to a blender and blend until smooth.
- Rinse the pan clean and place over medium heat. Return the blended sauce to the pan and add more milk if the sauce is too thick. Remove the pan from the heat and add the cheese, parsley, lemon juice and lemon zest. Add the cooked spaghetti to the sauce and toss to coat. Keep covered until ready to serve.
- Heat a large nonstick pan over medium-high heat. Coat the pan with olive oil, add the shrimp and cook until pink and just cooked through, about 4 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
- Top the pasta with the shrimp and serve with lemon wedges, parsley and cheese.
AUNT ALMA'S CAULIFLOWER SHRIMP AHOY
My dear Aunt Alma gave me this recipe just after we were stationed overseas - for a taste of home. Cauliflower and shrimp are baked in a spicy cheese sauce. Adjust the amounts of spices to suit your taste. It is delicious as a main dish with buttered French bread or as a hearty side dish. Enjoy!
