Source: Taste of Home
A great healthy mashed potato alternative with a ton of flavor.
Super easy and quick.
Ingredients
- 1 medium-large head cauliflower, cut into 1-inch chunks
- 4 oz. low fat cream cheese, softened
- ½ c. (2 oz.) shredded Asiago cheese
- 2 Tbls. butter
- 2 Tbls. coarsely chopped fresh parsley (or 1 t. dried)
- ¼ t. pepper
- ½ t. sea salt
- Pinch of garlic powder (optional)
Instructions
Steam cauliflower until very tender (12-15 minutes). Transfer to a colander, and let stand 5 minutes. Pour cauliflower onto an old absorbent towel. Wrap up for a few minutes to absorb any extra moisture.
Transfer cauliflower to a food processor. Add cream cheese, Asiago cheese, butter, pepper, ½ t. sea salt and garlic powder, if using. Process until blended.
Fold in parsley and transfer to a serving dish.
Serves 4
NOTE: It is important to get all the moisture out of the cauliflower!
