Cauliflower Smashed Potatoes

I went to a friend's house for dinner and had these Cauliflower Smashed Potatoes. I swore they were mashed potatoes and when I found out they were made from vegetables I was so excited. A healthy alternative to mashed potatoes and they are super easy to make!


Cauliflower Smashed Potatoes


Ingredients


1 Head of Cauliflower

3 Tablespoons Sour Cream
¼ Cup Bacon Bits
½ Cup Shredded Cheese
2 Tablespoons Butter (I use I Can’t Believe It’s Not Butter Spray)
¼ Cup Milk (Add more if you want them thinner, or less if you want them thicker)
1 Tablespoon Minced Garlic
Pinch of Salt
Pinch of Pepper
¼ Cup Shredded Cheese (garnish)

Directions:


1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

2. Wash Cauliflower and cut into medium chunks, boil 1 inch of water in a pot and add in Cauliflower. Place lid on pot and steam for 8 minutes.
3. Place Cauliflower in food processor and add in remaining ingredients, run food processor on high and add milk until desired consistency is reached.
4. Scrape Cauliflower Smashed Potatoes into a bowl, top with cheese and bake in the oven on 350 degrees for 15 minutes.
5. Serve and see if anyone notices they are vegetable mashed potatoes and not potatoes.
