Another Mock Mashed Potatoes (mashed Cauliflower)-low Carb
By: HeatherFeather
Jul 3, 2004
I saw this recipe made on the new low carb cooking show on Food Network. I tried the recipe tonight and it is really so good - this is my spin on the recipe. This time, I omitted the rosemary and used raw minced garlic, but you may also use a few cloves of roasted garlic if you prefer. This version is different from many others as there is no sour cream and no mayonnaise. Real comfort without all that starch. (Note: Smart Balance is a lower calorie, cholesterol reducing butter substitute).
SERVES 4
Ingredients
- 1 head fresh cauliflower, rinsed,florets only
- water, as needed
- 1 teaspoon fresh garlic, minced or 2 cloves roasted garlic, mashed,to taste
- 1 teaspoon fresh rosemary, to taste,minced (optional)

- 1/4 cup parmesan cheese, grated
- 1/8 teaspoon chicken bouillon powder (I used Better Than Bouillon brand)
- 1/8-1/4 teaspoon low sodium salt or salt, to taste
- 1/8 teaspoon black pepper, to taste
- 1 tablespoon smart balance butter substitute or unsalted butter, to taste
Directions
1
Bring a medium-large pot of water to boil.2
Cut cauliflower into smaller pieces, add to the pot,and boil until fork tender,approximately 6 minutes; drain well.3
Using a stick blender or potato masher, mash the cauliflower with the cream cheese, garlic, rosemary (if using), Parmesan cheese,butter,and bouillon powder.4
Add some salt and pepper to taste- test and adjust seasonings as needed.

Very yummie! My husband tasted this before we added the Parmesan cheese and he says he liked it better before the cheese so we'll be making it again and trying it without the Parmesan. Thanks for sharing this!

I don't like cauliflower... until now!! I steamed it in a steam bag with the garlic and some finely chopped onions and I used a garlic and herb laughing cow cheese wedge instead of cream cheese, tons of fresh chopped parsley, and not buillion b/c I had none. They were so yummy!!!!

These did taste almost exactly like mashed potatoes! I left ˝ of the cauliflower mashed, and put the rest into the food processor for a few pulses to smooth it out. I actually preferred the texture of the “mashed” version- the flavors were crisper and it wasn’t so watery. Thanks, this looks like a keeper!
