For many people, discovering mashed cauliflower is a delicious revelation. It’s low-carb, more nutritious than typical mashed potatoes and it tastes really, really good! The secret to cooking cauliflower for a smashing mash is to boil the cauliflower first until it’s super soft, then blend it with your favorite add-ins. Blend less for a more rustic, chunky texture or blend more so it comes out smooth and velvety. Make this healthier, creamy vegetable side with garlic, vegan Parmesan cheese and buttery coconut oil – in only 25 minutes.
