Simply Cauliflower Mash

I decided to go here again. Why? Because this recipe is Simply that simple. If you’re trying to get your kids or grandkids to eat more vegi’s this is a great thing to start with.

The last recipe I gave you (for cauliflower mashers) had more of an Atkins spin, with heavy cream and all. These are just so good no cream or extra butter needed!

Get those florets started

Cook them up

Let the blending begin

Nice and smooth

Make the consistency yours, add less or more broth depending on your preference.

Don’t forget that butter. Decadence in moderation, it’s a very good thing!

Oh yum! And here you go…

• 1 head trimmed cauliflower, chopped into florets
• 1 tsp salt for cooking cauliflower 
• 1 tsp garlic powder for cooking cauliflower
• 1 tablespoon salted butter
