Mashed Cauliflower

A wonderful alternative to high carb potato.

Ingredients:

• 1 large cauliflower (most of the core removed) cut into florets
• 1 Tbs natural butter
• 1 tsp salt
• 1/2 tsp ground black pepper to taste
• 1 tsp garlic flakes or fresh garlic (optional)
• 2 Tbsp full cream
• fresh or dried mixed herbs (optional - depending on what you are serving it with)

Directions:
1. Prepare cauliflower and cut into florets. Place in a double steamer saucepan and steam
until almost done. You can boil the cauliflower if you don't have a steamer, but steaming
holds more of the nutrients and flavor.
2. Tip cauliflower into a glass bowl or food processor once slightly cooled and add all the
other ingredients. Mash by hand or process together until smooth. Garnish with herbs if
desired.
