Wash thoroughly and slice before preparing the grill safe vegetable packet. Separate cauliflower into bite sized pieces. Soak in butter, or oil, before grilling. Grilled cauliflower can cook unevenly. Cooked cauliflower looks and tastes similar to mashed potatoes, and is occasionally used in place of potatoes in recipes. However, due to high fiber content, avoid a sudden swift change in dietary fiber amounts consumed, or unwelcome pain and discomfort will occur. Cauliflower is often ready to be picked and eaten far before potatoes, and is an early garden substitute. It's not difficult to grow, although garden pests also like it.
