Mashed cauliflower is a fantastic side dish and a great alternative to mashed potatoes. I am not a huge cauliflower fan, but I love this recipe. This is without a doubt the best cauliflower dish I have ever tried.
This is a simple and easy side dish. Don’t you just love that kind of recipe?

Happy New Year Erica. Mashed cauliflower has just become gourmet. Love the spices and the cheese added.

I used to eat mashed cauliflower by the truck load when I was doing the Atkins Diet back in early 2000. I wish I had your recipe back then. This is way more gourmet and tastier looking than my boiled cauliflower head mashed up with a chicken bouillon cube. 🙂
