LOW-CARB FAUXTATOES/CAULIFLOWER DELUXE



Low-Carb Fauxtatoes/Cauliflower Deluxe image

This is based on Dana Carpender's recipe from her book 500 Low-Carb Recipes. She is my all time favorite low-carb recipe writer -- she's the real deal. I make this for my husband and I in place of mashed potatoes and we love it. Dana recommends either adding a few cloves of sliced garlic to the cooking water or roasted garlic to the food processor when blending for "a little zing" -- I take the roasted garlic route myself.

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 large head cauliflower
1/3 cup cream

  • Simmer the cauliflower in water with the cream added to it (necessary to keep the cauliflower sweet and displaying an appetizing color). Drain thoroughly when very tender.
