You are preparing your food in a very healthy way! Nicely done! High FIVES to you, girlfriend!!
Someone earlier suggested mashing the cauliflower much like you would potatoes, so that would indicate using a butter substitute like Smart Squeeze. I also make a yummy cheese sauce with fat free milk and fat free shredded cheddar and a little garlic powder. mmmmmmm. Broccolli and cauliflower would benefit from the added sauce, and so would your calcium intake! Beans are great with a little cider vinegar. I also like to saute them with fat free cooking spray and put a little garlic and ginger on them. mmmmmmm
I'm a garlic freak! If you put garlic on it, I will eat it!
Good call on the pickles, you are absolutely correct. However, if you are a pickle nut, you can find lower sodium pickles out there but you have to read the labels and make the healthy choice.
You're doing a great job, Deb! Keep up the good work!
