Garlic Mashed “Potatoes”
Mashed potatoes are a delicious addition to the traditional holiday menu. Still, they cause a spike in blood sugar, followed by a crash, and contribute to the dreaded Thanksgiving Food Coma. This creamy mashed garlic cauliflower recipe is utterly delicious (and if you can believe it) and better than mashed potatoes!
Ingredients
- 1 medium head cauliflower
- 1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
- ¼ cup unsweetened coconut milk or grass-fed milk
- ½ tsp minced garlic
- 3 tbsp grass-fed butter
- ½ tsp fresh chives
- Celtic or Himalayan salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Clean and cut cauliflower into small pieces. Steam or boil until cooked but not overdone. Drain well. Add oil, milk, and seasonings, then puree with a hand blender or food processor. Blend until it reaches the consistency of mashed potatoes. Garnish with butter and chives. Serve immediately.
