Mashed Cauliflower

Tonight was my first foray into mashed cauliflower, what seems like a Paleo right of passage. Here is how my method went...

You will need:
1 head of cauliflower 
4-5 cloves of garlic (peeled)
Olive oil
Salt
Pepper

Chop up the cauliflower and toss it into a saucepan with the peeled garlic cloves (leave them whole, no mincing please). Add about 1 inch of water. Bring water to a boil and cover. Steam for about 5-6 minutes, until tender. Drain off water.

Put cauliflower, garlic, a hearty swirl of olive oil, a dash of salt, and a dash of pepper into a food processor. Whirl that around until you get your desired texture. It should look like mashed potatoes.

Here was my finished product, served with London broil


Mashed cauliflower has the comfort factor of mashed potatoes, but with a different texture. I LOVED them. Give 'em a try and let me know what you think.
