The perfect mashed potato alternative

Last Updated January 12, 2018

From school lunchrooms to fancy steak houses, this side dish is a staple.

Well, sorta.

Introducing: cauliflower mash. It’s creamy, steamy, and savory-starch deliciousness.

Ridiculously easy. Ridiculously good.

But I think its transformation is the best part.

Mesmerized by what a simple head of cauliflower can become

“That’s cauliflower?”

Yep.

It looks and feels and tastes identical to the real thing (mash potatoes).

It’s great next to any main course. And, it’s one of those “sneaky” ways to get your pickiest eaters to eat some (non-potato) vegetables.

It’s definitely a Vitamix recipe, but an immersion blender works just fine.

I hope this cauliflower mash becomes a staple in your house as it has become one in ours.
