Rain's Thursday Art and Dinner Date Candy Cane along with Cauliflower and Potato Mash

Welcome to Rain's Thursday Art and Dinner Date! Here are my Candy Canes for the 'Candy Cane' theme. It is an ACEO (2 1/2" x 3 1/2").

For the Dinner Date, I did a cauliflower and potato mash.

1 cauliflower cut into quarters

5 medium potatoes skin on

5-6 tbs olive oil or butter

1 tsp paprika

1 onion chopped

2 cloves garlic minced

1/2 tsp dried oregano

1/2 tsp salt

1/2 tsp pepper

1/2  milk

1/2 c broth

1/2 c water

Boil quartered cauliflower, skin on potatoes  in a pot of water for 25-30 mins until vegetables 

are tender.  When the potatoes have cooled remove the skins.

saute onions, garlic, oregano in olive oil until tender.

In the pot, add milk, broth, oil, water and cauliflower.  Add the salt, pepper, paprika, onions, garlic, oregano.  I use my immersion blender to blend this mixture.  Mash the skinned potatoes with a potato masher.  Mix in the blended cauliflower.

Enjoy your cauliflower and potato mash!
