CHEESY CAULIFLOWER BISCUITS

These tasty little biscuits from Cooking Light are less than 25 calories each and they are gluten-free for those who follow a gluten-free diet.

• 1 cauliflower head, leaves removed
• 3 garlic cloves, minced
• 1/3 cup nonfat Greek yogurt
• 1/2 cup cheddar cheese, shredded
• 2 eggs
• 2 egg whites
• 1 teaspoon kosher salt (I suggest cutting that in half.)
• 1/2 teaspoon black pepper

Step 1: Make Mashed Cauliflower Preheat the oven to 400°F. Steam cauliflower for about 10-12 minutes or until very tender, then transfer to a food processor. Add minced garlic and pulse several times until smooth and creamy.

Step 2: Mix Transfer mashed cauliflower into a large mixing bowl. Add in two whole eggs, cheddar cheese, Nonfat Greek yogurt, salt and pepper and mix together.

In a separate bowl, beat egg whites until stiff. Then, slowly fold the egg whites into the cauliflower mixture.

Step 3: Bake Coat a mini muffin pan with cooking spray of your choice. Then fill the cups to the top with the cauliflower mixture. Bake for 20-25 minutes, until golden brown.
