Goes Well With Everything!
Good old versatile cauliflower. Where would we be without it?
One of the staples of a low carb diet is cauliflower mash! It’s almost a rite of passage making your first batch. There are lots of ways to prepare it, yielding slightly different results. Each method involves cooking the cauliflower and blending it until it resembles the traditional starchy side – mashed potatoes. What’s more important than the preparation, in our opinion, is the way you dress cauliflower mash. With the right ingredients, your cauliflower mash will taste just like the mashed potatoes we all know and love.
We love to add butter, sour cream, and dill to our cauli mash to give it the distinct “potatoe-y” taste. There are other flavors that pair beautifully with cauliflower- one of our favorites is roasted garlic and fresh rosemary! Each ingredient added to this recipe adds to the natural sweetness of the final product. When roasted, garlic cloves change completely! They turn from a sharp and spicy bite to a soft, sweet, and sticky consistency. Many people enjoy roasting garlic and spreading the cloves on a slice of bread, but we have bigger dreams for it.

Here’s how to make Cauliflower Mash!
Servings: servings |
- To roast your garlic cloves, make a little aluminum foil tray and place your garlic cloves in. Drizzle a tablespoon of olive oil in and bake at 400Ā°F for about 10-12 minutes.
- While the garlic is roasting, cut your cauliflower into evenly sized florets and place them into a steam basket over simmering water. Make sure the lid you're using is a good fit!
- Steam until a fork pierces through easily- about 10 minutes. Your garlic cloves should look like this when done:
- Drain all the water from the pot and place your steamed cauliflower back into it. Add butter and your seasonings, as well as the roasted garlic cloves.
- Using an immersion blender, blend until smooth and creamy.
- Enjoy!
