My husband loves mashes potatoes and well, so do I, but my waist sure doesn’t! So in preparation for Thanksgiving I have been working on and perfecting a superb substitute – Garlic Mashed Cauliflower. In fact, it’s so good, I can’t stop making them and I just made a new batch today. This mashed cauliflower recipe is vegan, anti-inflammatory keto, and paleo.

Garlic Mashed Cauliflower

Ingredients:

1 head of cauliflower cut into 8-10 pieces

3 cloves of unpeeled garlic

1/4 cup Almond milk (can use coconut milk to make it anti-inflammatory)

salt & pepper to taste

You Need:

Double boiler

Immersion Hand Blender

Large mixing bowl

Instructions:

Place cauliflower and garlic in the double boiler and allow water to boil.

Cover and simmer for 25-30 minutes

When cooked, place cauliflower in a large mixing bowl

Squeeze garlic out of the peel into the bowl and discard the peels

Add almond milk, salt and pepper

Mix until you get to the consistency you like your mashed potatoes (I like mine a little lumpy).

Serve

It makes a ton, but it refrigerates and heats up well. These will most certainly be on my Thanksgiving table next to the mashed potatoes. Guilt free and delicious!
