Mashed Cauliflower

This low carb side dish is just perfect for Thanksgiving dinner. This is an amazing replacement for mashed potatoes. What makes it so delicious is the roasted garlic; this I would say, is the key ingredient. The consistency of mashed cauliflower is pretty much the same as mashed potatoes, and when you try it, you won't believe it is actually cauliflower!

Ingredients:

1 medium sized Cauliflower
1Tblsp Butter
3 Garlic cloves
Olive oil
Salt

Preparation:


In a piece of aluminum foil, put the 3 garlic cloves and drizzle with olive oil. Fold it and bake at 375 F for 20 minutes.



In a medium pot, bring cold water to a boil. Cut cauliflower into small pieces and cook until tender, soft. Drain cauliflower.



In food processor put the hot cauliflower, garlic, butter and salt and puree until smooth.



The mashed cauliflower should be served hot, but if you have some left over it will keep well in the fridge.
