Oh my goodness, I’m in love. I threw some chicken in to marinate this morning and chose this recipe as my side. I made two new recipes in one day! Yay me. It turned out amazing for a couple reasons. First off, it took exactly 12 minutes to make from start to finish (that’s quicker than the chicken!). Secondly, it uses ingredients that I had on hand and thirdly … and the best reason of all … it’s gooooooood. Really good. Like mashed potatoes without the evil carbohydrates and starches. I’m going to have to start buying cauliflower regularly, I’d be happy to eat this as lunch. Is there something wrong wtih eating an entire cauliflower head to myself?
INGREDIENTS

2 tbsp Milk or Non-Dairy Alternative

I absolutely loved this recipe, we make mashed cauliflower quite often, but I had never added cheese before. I think I will add it every time!
