I had never had cauliflower mash until I made it last week. I always assumed that it was a healthy variation to traditional mashed potatoes, but I was wrong. After chatting with some friends and clients and then looking through recipes I found that more often than not it was just a substitute for potatoes and loaded with butter, milk, cheese....you name it. Not in our house! I made a very healthy version that tasted delicious and would be perfect for a side at Thanksgiving and oh so easy!
INGREDIENTS:
(makes about 4 servings)
1 head of cauliflower
1/2 cup 0% Plain Greek Yogurt (I use Fage for cooking)
2-3 chopped scallions
juice of 1/2 of a lemon
1 clove of garlic
salt to taste
DIRECTIONS:
In a large pot boil about 3 cups of water. Wash and de-stem the cauliflower, chop into medium pieces. Steam cauliflower until softens, about 10 minutes. Drain and place into a medium mixing bowl. Using an immersion blender, blend cauliflower until it is a smooth consistency. Add yogurt, lemon juice, scallions, garlic, salt and blend.
