MASHED CAULIFLOWER

Serves 4

Mashed cauliflower tastes similar to mashed potatoes but with fewer carbs. Top with chopped  herbs like chives, dill or scallions.

1 head cauliflower

3-4 tablespoons vegan butter or butter flavored coconut oil

1 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil

Sea salt and ground black pepper to taste

Herbs for topping

Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add cauliflower or potatoes and garlic and cook until  very tender, about 10 minutes. Reserve 1/4 cup of the cooking liquid and then drain well and  transfer cauliflower to a food processor. Add oil and reserved water, 1 tablespoon at a time, and  puree until smooth. (Or mash with a potato masher). Season with salt and pepper and serve.
