Mashed Cauliflower
Posted on December 28th, 2009 by craighope
This is your faux mashed potato dish. There are many variations out there mainly because you can make this dish to your liking. Experiment as you see fit. The important factor is that now you can eat a healthy substitute.
Ingredients:
1 head of cauliflower
2 TBL butter (or reduced fat margerine)
2 TBL 1% milk
2 TBL ricotta cheese
2 TBL sour cream
salt/pepper to taste
Use fat-free as you see fit from the ingredients above. Cut the cauliflower into 6 pieces. Microwave for 6 minutes per pound until tender. Drain and put in a food processor. Process until smooth. Add the remaining ingredients and process a little more.
Optional: add a couple cloves of garlic (minced). Put the minced garlic in the microwave for the final minute to release the love oils from the cloves.
Optional 2: Add cheddar cheese to your liking.

Try boiling the cauliflower in Chicken Broth, preferable the powered kind without sodium or msg. Really added a briny taste that rivaled real taters.
