Mashed Potato Fake-out: Mashed Cauliflower recipe

Okay, these really did fool Jackson! I liked them a lot too. They had a tiny bit of an aftertaste that regular mashed potatoes do not have, but supposedly if you add cream cheese you won't even taste that. Plus these were as easy to make as homemade mashed potatoes.

Mashed Cauliflower 

Ingredients: 

1 head of cauliflower
salt, pepper, butter, chives, garlic to taste (basically anything you would normally put in your mashed potatoes)

Directions: 

Cut the cauliflower into florets. Boil for 5-10 minutes (or until tender).

Drain & place in a food processor. Whip until smooth.

Add butter, salt, pepper and/or whatever other spices you usually put in your mashed potatoes. And voila! There you have a tasty side dish and easy way to trick your kids into eating something other than potatoes. (If you have that problem. Which I obviously do).
