Spiced Applesauce Bread Reading Mashed Cauliflower "Potatoes" 2 minutes Next Herbed Wild Rice & Quinoa Stuffing

A Cheesy and Creamy Side Dish that Won't Weigh You Down!

Pairing perfectly with the lightened version of stuffing is this alternative to potatoes – Mashed Cauliflower! Potatoes are undoubtedly delicious, but unfortunately quite high in starch. Cauliflower offers an alternative that is similar in texture, filling, a great source of fiber, and chock full of vitamins! It’s even keto friendly! If you prefer mashed potatoes that are completely creamy, we recommend pouring the “potatoes” into a separate bowl and using an immersion blender to get rid of all chunks.

 

Ingredients:

1 large head cauliflower

4 Tbsp unsalted butter

¼ cup sour cream

2 cloves garlic, minced

¼ cup parmesan cheese, finely shredded

Salt and black pepper, to taste

 

Directions:

Place cauliflower in a steaming basket on a rack into the pressure cooker. Cook for 3 minutes on high pressure. Use quick release to vent pressure.

Remove cauliflower and pour out water. Using the Sauté setting, heat butter. Sauté the minced garlic until fragrant (about 1 minute).

Return cauliflower to the pot and mash thoroughly. We strongly recommend using a non-metal potato masher to avoid damaging your pot.

Stir in parmesan cheese, sour cream, and season to taste with salt and pepper.
