Mashed Cauliflower

There are lots of mashed cauliflower recipes out there, but I really like this one because it uses chicken broth to give it extra flavor. The added parmesan cheese and sour cream brings it up a notch. This mashed cauliflower recipe is less than 1 Condiment per serving which is perfect when wanting to top it off with brown gravy. 


Mashed Cauliflower

Ingredients:
6 cups fresh cauliflower florets (12 Greens)
½ cup chicken broth (½ Condiment)
¼ tsp salt (1 Condiment)
¼ tsp black pepper (½ Condiment)
2 tbsp reduced fat parmesan cheese (1 Condiment)
1 tbsp light butter (1 Healthy Fat)
2 tbsp sour cream * (1 Healthy Fat)

Brown Gray:
¾ cup water

Directions:
In a large saucepan, cover cauliflower with water. Bring to a boil over medium high heat. Reduce heat to simmer and cover; cook for about 10 to 12 minutes or until cauliflower is tender. Drain and return cauliflower back to saucepan.

Add chicken broth and mash cauliflower to desired consistency or use an immersion blender. Stir in salt, pepper, parmesan cheese, butter, and sour cream. Divide into 4 equal portions.

Prepare gravy according to package. Top each serving of mashed cauliflower with ¼ of brown gravy.

Makes 4 Servings
Each Serving provides
3 Greens, 3 Condiments (¾ Condiment if using no gravy)
and ½ Healthy Fat

Need an additional 1/2 Healthy Fat? Add 1 tbsp more of sour cream or 1/2 tbsp of light butter per serving. I made this recipe 1/2 Healthy Fat so that it could pair nicely with the Air Fryer Turkey Breast which also has 1/2 Healthy Fat making it 1 Healthy Fat.

* You can also substitute the sour cream with 2 tbsp low fat cream cheese or 2 light laughing cow cheese wedges.
