Recipe – Healthy Mashed Cauliflower
By
1 small or medium head of cauliflower, washed, trimmed, and chopped roughly | 2 Tbsp. almond or rice milk |
1/4–1/2 tsp. salt | 2 Tbsp. Earth Balance or oil |
1 small clove garlic, minced | 1/4 tsp. dried thyme |
1. Chop cauliflower into smaller chunks – about bite-size pieces works well.
2. Peel garlic clove(s) and cut in half, lengthwise. 3. Steam cauliflower and garlic for 15 minutes, or until cauliflower and garlic are tender enough for a fork to easily pass through. 4. Drain and transfer to a food processor and pulse until the cauliflower is broken down in the processor. 5 Add salt, earth balance or oil, and, with the motor now running, add almond milk for a light, smooth texture. 6 Add thyme, and pulse till incorporated. Serve hot! This mashed cauliflower recipe is a delicious and healthy substitute for traditional mashed potatoes. |
