Classic Mashed Cauliflower

By Bettybug

Mashed cauliflower is a great substitute for mashed potatoes! If you are avoiding simple carbs especially, this is the way to go!

Ingredients

• 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
• 1 dash salt
• 1 head medium cauliflower
• 2 fluid ounces water

Preparation

Step 1

Chop cauliflower into flourettes, boil until very tender (about 10 minutes).
Drain and place in a blender or food processor.

Add olive oil and water, one tablespoon at a time until a smooth consistency, similar to mashed potatoes, is reached.

Season with salt and pepper and/or chives to taste. Serve immediately.
