FORGET MASHED POTOTOS! SAVE YOUR HEART & LIFE! MAKE THIS
Here's an interesting fact: a potato is less nutritious when you mash it! even without adding a thing to it -just the process of mashing it and eating it - turns it into PURE SUGAR, by eating the potato WHOLE (not mashing it) the body has to work really hard to mash that potato in your stomach. My making mash potatos is like taking anti-biotics when you don't need them: you're artificially altering something that YOUR BODY is supposed to be doing itself. ANYWAY.... Mashed potatos are BAD NEWS PEOPLE! BAD, BAD NEWS! Spikes your insulin level and that's assuming you haven't added poison like butter, sour cream and bacon! The you're REALLY talking trouble. So, I know! I know! You don't want to live your live eating "salad" for every meal. You want to still have your favorites; ME TOO! And lucky you! I found a few ways to CHEAT DEATH and ENJOY YOUR FAVORITE DISHES TOO!!!! This is my secret recipe for "MASHED CALIFLOWER & BROCCOLI" You CAN make this with just cauliflower if you really want it to look like Mashed Potatos. If you're going to do that, then just replace the head of broccoli with a 2nd head of cauliflower. Boom, done, easy. The reason I chose to add broccoli to this is because of the POWERFUL ANTI-CANCER properties broccoli has (and Garlic!) However, if you use the broccoli, yes, this will have a green- hue to it, LOL! (Taste Fantastic though!) I like this recipe like I used to like my mashed pototo: CHUNKY. But, when you are making this, because it's not a potato - go a head and make this as sooth as you want - the nutritional quality of cauliflower and broccoli will not be ruined! Oh, if you MUST (and PLEASE TRY TO RESIST) add a little bit of rice/soy/fat-free milk. LOOK AT THE NUTRITION LABLE FOR THIS RECIPE ===> Please don't ruin this by adding the following poisons: Butter/Sour cream/Bacon/Cheese unless you're going to add it S-P-A-R-I-N-G-L-Y I'd rather you use a garlic flavored olive oil instead.

VEGAN BANGERS AND LOW CARB MASH! (BANGERS & MASH)
Another forbidden dish for me. But I found a way around it. Using my recipe for "Forget Mashed potatos, Save your heart & save your life, make this instead" which is Mashed Cauliflower and Broccoli, I substituted the that recipe instead of using starchy- not good for you mashed potatoes. Instead of artery clogging sausage, I used a leaner, vegan sausage from Morningstar Farms. Topped with a very light onion gravy, it's hard to believe this isn't the real thing. Plus, the 'Mashed Cauliflower and Broccoli" is LOADED with vitamins and antioxidants.PLEASE NOTE: NUTRITION CALCULATOR ON THIS RECIPE IS VERY WRONG! 5 MORNINGSTAR FARMS VEGAN SAUSAGES=300 CALORIES 62.5 CALORIES FROM FAT.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 and cook sausages in there until crispy (about 20 minutes).
- While sausages are cooking, on the stove top, take the onions, garlic and saute in a non-stick pan. If onions are frozen -- you shouldn't need to use oil because as the onions melt -- the water will lubricate the pan. (calorie saver!) When they start to stick, start to gradually add in the veggie stock. Reduce heat and simmer.
- While those 2 things are working, scoop the mashed cauliflower-broccoli on to the plate.
- When sausages are done, put them on the plate with the mashed cauliflower-broccoli.
- Add a squirt of brown sauce into the onion mixture (less than a teaspoon) and mix one last time before pouring this onion gravy over the "mashed cauliflower-broccoli".
- Serve hot. Yum!
