My friend Nicole stopped by one day with a container filled with her creamy mashed potatoes, and while I was enjoying some, she tells me they were blended with mashed cauliflower. My reaction?
WOW! I had no idea and couldn’t tell the difference.
In fact, I thought to myself – this is genius! Nicole makes it often for her twins, mainly to disguise the cauliflower in order to get them to eat extra veggie nutrients. And I have to tell you, it tasted amazing! Just like you’re eating the basic mashed potatoes.
We love cauliflower and always try to think of new ways to cook or incorporate this wonderful vegetable inside or main dishes.
How to Make Easy Mashed Cauli-Potatoes!
Here’s how you do it. Simply rinse, cord, and break off the florets of the cauliflower. Boil for a few minutes, drain and mash them.
At the same time, boil your favorite white potatoes, drain, and mash. Mix the two together along with butter, half and half and season with salt to taste.
Then blend with a hand mixer until you get a smooth creamy texture.
You will love the fact that you are giving your family all the nutrients that both cauliflower and potatoes offer, as it offers less starch in each serving.
After one taste, you’ll be hooked! They are that good!
