In order to make this recipe, you will need to make a cauliflower puree first.
Ingredients:
cauliflower
water
Start Cooking:
1. Put the cauliflower in a food processor with about 2-3 tablespoons of water. Puree for about 2 minutes until a creamy paste forms. You might need to stop the food processor and scrape down the sides. You also might need to add more water to get the right texture.
Now that you have the cauliflower puree, you can make the mashed potatoes!
Ingredients:
1 pound potatoes, peeled and cubed
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup cauliflower puree
2 tablespoons butter
1/2 cup milk
salt and pepper to taste
1 tablespoon oregano(my addition)
Start Cooking:
1. Put the potatoes and salt in a large pot, with enough water to cover the potatoes. Boil over high heat for about 15-20 minutes. You should be able to easily pierce the potatoes with a fork when done.
2. Drain potatoes and return to pot. Use a potatoes masher to begin to mash the potatoes. Then add remaining ingredients and continue to mash, until the mixture is smooth and creamy. Serve warm.
Tips and Hints:
1. I served mine with some cheese on top for a little extra protein. You can add all of your favorite potato toppings.
2. Nutrition info: Deceptively Delicious says that 1 cup of cauliflower has 25 calories and may help fight off some types of cancer. It can also help resist infection because it is high in vitamin C.
3. Make extra! Mashed potatoes make great left overs!
Enjoy!
