Mashed: Cauliflower Mashed Potatoes (South Beach)
Source:
South Beach Recipe
Phase 1
These taste amazing just like real mashed potatoes.
I also like to add a little grated Asiago cheese for added flavor.
Ingredients
1 large head (4-5 cups) cauliflower, florets with a little stems
2 Tbls. butter
1 - 2 Tbls. half & half
a pinch of garlic powder to your liking, optional
salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
Steam, or microwave cauliflower until soft.
Line a colander with a towel, then fill with cooked cauliflower. Wrap towel up around cauliflower to absorb moisture. If not drained well, consistency will be soupy.
Transfer cooked cauliflower to a food processor. Add butter and half-and-half, a little at a time, to get desired consistency.
Season with salt, pepper and a pinch of garlic powder if desired.
