Cauliflower makes a healthy substitute for mashed
potatoes! It's a good source of vitamin C, folate, and
dietary fiber.
1 head cauliflower
½ T. butter or margarine
Salt and pepper
Chop the cauliflower into small (about 1 inch) pieces.
Place in a steamer basket over boiling water. Cover
and steam for about 15-20 minutes, until very tender.
Place the cooked cauliflower into a food processor, and
process for a few seconds, until smooth.
Stir in butter or margarine, and add salt and pepper to
taste.
Variation: Make loaded mock mashed potatoes by
adding shredded cheese, chives, bacon bits (or veggie
bacon bits), sour cream, etc.
Serves 4 as a side dish.
