Chive & Garlic Mashed Cauliflower Details
Prep time: 10 minutes
Cook time: 15 minutes
Serves: 4
Tip: Steaming the garlic along with the cauliflower will remove the raw edge and make it more tender.
Ingredients:
1 medium cauliflower head, florets only
2-3 whole garlic cloves, peeled
1 T. butter, melted
2 T. unsweetened almond milk
1 t. garlic powder
1 t. onion powder
Sea salt and black pepper, to taste
3 T. fresh chives, chopped
Directions:
Place the cauliflower florets and the garlic cloves into a steamer basket set over a pot of gently boiling water.
Cover and steam until the cauliflower is fork-tender, around 15 minutes.
Transfer the cauliflower and garlic to a food processor or blender and add the melted butter, almond milk, garlic powder, and onion powder.
Season with salt and black pepper, to taste, and process until smooth and creamy. Taste and adjust the seasonings, as desired.
Transfer to a serving bowl and top with fresh chives before serving.
Enjoy!
