"MOCK" GARLIC MASHED POTATOES

Steps:

• Set a stockpot of water to boil over high heat.
• Clean and cut cauliflower into small pieces. Cook in boiling water for about 6 minutes, or until well done. Drain well; do not let cool and pat cooked cauliflower very dry between several layers of paper towels.
• In a bowl with an immersion blender, or in a food processor, puree the hot cauliflower with the cream cheese, Parmesan, garlic, chicken base, and pepper until almost smooth.
• Garnish with chives, and serve hot with pats of butter.

WHIPPED CAULIFLOWER AIP MASHED "POTATOES"

Steps:

• Bring a 4-quart pot of water to boil. While it comes to a boil, cut up your head of cauliflower.
• Once the water is boiling add in the cauliflower and garlic. Cover and let it cook for 15 minutes or until the cauliflower is fork-tender.
• Drain very well and place the tender cauliflower and garlic in a high powered blender or food processor.
• Add in the bone broth, salt and buttery coconut oil. Blend on low, gradually increasing the power to high. Use a tamper to mash down the cauliflower, and keep the mix moving. If your blender doesn't have a tamper, pause the blending periodically and scrape down the sides and move it around with a spatula.
• Blend until it's thick and silky. Taste, add up to 1/2 teaspoon more salt if needed. Blend and serve hot.
• I like to garnish it with green onion and a little melted Buttery Coconut Oil. This goes really well with Chicken Breast, Meatballs, or Broiled Salmon.

MASHED CAULIFLOWER AND POTATOES

Steps:

• Add potatoes and cauliflower in a large pot. Add the chicken or vegetable broth to cover the vegetables. You may use water if you like instead but the broth adds extra flavor. Add about 1 teaspoon salt to the pot and 2 of the garlic cloves from the head of garlic that you have already skinned. (Reserve the other cloves for roasting)
• Bring to a boil, cover and simmer for about 20 minutes (until the potatoes are fork-tender).
• While the cauliflower and potatoes are simmering, turn your broiler on and place oven rack on one spot below the middle. Put the remaining garlic cloves (you want at least 7 or 8) on a piece of aluminum foil and drizzle with the 1 tablespoon olive oil. Add a dash of salt and black pepper. Place the foil on the oven rack and heat until the edges of the cloves just start to brown, about 5-7 minutes depending on the heat of your oven. Watch closely so the cloves don't burn. Remove the cloves from the oven and mince until it's almost a garlic mash. Set aside.
• Drain the cauliflower and potatoes and return to the pot. Add the butter and the garlic mash that you've roasted and use a potato masher to mash the vegetables until the butter is fully melted.
• Add the milk and mash some more until you reach the consistency you desire. Add more butter and/or milk if needed.
• Add more salt to taste, stir and place in a serving platter. Sprinkle top with fresh parsley, black pepper and a pat of butter (to look even more irresistible) before serving.
• Add potatoes and cauliflower to the insert of your pressure cooker and add 2 cups of chicken or vegetable broth. You may use water if you like instead but the broth adds extra flavor. Add about 1 teaspoon salt to the pot and 2 of the garlic cloves from the head of garlic that you have already skinned. (Reserve the other cloves for roasting)
• Seal the lid on the cooker, select Manual cooking and cook on high pressure for 10 minutes. (See next step for preparing roasted garlic while potatoes and cauliflower are cooking.) Once the 10 minutes is up, let pressure release naturally for 5 minutes then finish with a quick release. Remove lid when pressure is completely released and the top can be turned easily.
• While the cauliflower and potatoes are pressure cooking, turn your broiler on and place oven rack on one spot below the middle. Put the remaining garlic cloves (you want at least 7 or 8) on a piece of aluminum foil and drizzle with the 1 tablespoon olive oil. Add a dash of salt and black pepper. Place the foil on the oven rack and heat until the edges of the cloves just start to brown, about 5-7 minutes depending on the heat of your oven. Watch closely so the cloves don't burn. Remove the cloves from the oven and mince until it's almost a garlic mash. Set aside.
• Remove the cauliflower and potatoes with a slotted spoon to a large bowl. (Do not pour any remaining broth or water into the bowl unless you want to make the recipe dairy-free then add the broth in place of milk or butter.) Add the butter and the garlic mash that you've roasted and use a potato masher to mash the vegetables until the butter is fully melted.
• Add the milk and mash some more until you reach the consistency you desire. Add more butter and/or milk if needed.
• Add more salt to taste. Sprinkle top with fresh parsley, black pepper and a pat of butter (to look even more irresistible) before serving.

WHIPPED CAULIFLOWER, LOW-CARB

Steps:

• Bring a pot of water to a boil. Cook cauliflower florets in the boiling water until they are extremely tender, about 10 minutes; drain in a colander. Put several paper towels on top of the cauliflower and use back of a big bowl to press down and squeeze as much liquid from the cauliflower as you can.
• Mix Parmesan cheese, cream cheese, chicken soup base, roasted garlic, and butter in a bowl. Add cauliflower to the cheese mixture; beat with an electric hand mixer until creamy, about 3 minutes. Beat milk into the mixture until you get your desired texture. Season with salt and pepper.

• In stockpot or Dutch oven, heat 3 quarts water to boiling over high heat.
• Cut florets from heads of cauliflower. If using stalks, cut stalks into 1/2-inch chunks. There should be about 8 cups raw cauliflower. Add cauliflower to boiling water; return to boiling. Cook 15 to 20 minutes or until cauliflower is extremely soft when pierced with knife. Remove from heat; set aside.
• Strain cauliflower well; pat dry thoroughly with towel. Place cauliflower in food processor. Add broth mixture. Cover; process until extremely smooth, processing in batches if necessary. Rinse out stockpot, and return to pot to combine batches.

CLASSIC WHIPPED MASHED POTATOES

Steps:

• Cook the potatoes: Peel and cut potatoes into big pieces (that can fit in the palm of your hand). Place in a medium saucepan and add enough water to cover the potatoes by an inch or so. Bring to a simmer and add 4 pinches of salt, a bay leaf and a smashed clove of garlic. Cook until the potatoes are just tender, about 15 minutes.
• Potatoes are done when the tip of a knife yields a firm, not mushy texture. Drain the potatoes, discard the bay leaf, and toss the potatoes back into the pan over low heat to dry them out.
• Assemble the mashed potatoes: Pass the potatoes through a ricer and add them back into the warm saucepan. Add butter and stir to melt and combine with the potatoes. Add the milk in two additions, continuing to stir the entire time. Taste and season with more salt. Serve immediately.
