Wegmans Organic CauliCrème is a simple, three-ingredient cauliflower purée that is sold frozen and has the potential to be used as a starter for various sauces and recipes, or a substitute for mashed potatoes.
Wegmans notes that "We developed this cauliflower puree to be used in our 'Cauli-Cream' recipes," which can be found online and includes ideas such as Mac & Cheese with Cauliflower Puree or Cauli-Spinach & Cauliflower Gratin.
Over the past few years, cauliflower has emerged as a versatile, naturally gluten-free substitute for pizza crusts and a low-carb, lower calorie alternative to brown or white rice. As such, this cruciferous vegetable can now be seen as the featured ingredient in many single-serve meal cups, snacks and other food products.
