Cauliflowers can be uneasy on the taste buds, however, if you blend it into side dishes this can make it a tasty treat!

Instructions

Difficulty: Easy

Things You’ll Need:

  • Real or instant mashed potatoes
  • 1/2 cup of minced cauliflowers
  • Sour cream
  • Parsley
Step1
First you will want to mince your cauliflower, you can do this either by hand or using a food processor. Once cauliflower is minced pour into a mixing bowl.
Step2
Take two table spoons of sour cream and add it to the mixing bowl of cauliflower. Using a large spoon or hand blender on low speed, mix cauliflower and sour cream into a smooth mixture and put it to the side.
Step3
Prepare your mashed potatoes as you normally would, I suggest using instant mashed potatoes for a speedy side dish.
Step4
Add cauliflower and sour cream mixture to your mashed potatoes. Using a large spoon hand mix the ingredients together. Do not mix for more than 3 minutes, you want to keep the thick texture.
Step5
Garnish with parsley!

Tips & Warnings

  • Sour Cream is optional
  • Parsley is optional
  • Works great with red skin potatoes
  • You do not have to use all the mixture at once, you can add 3 table spoons rather than the whole mixture and store the rest for another time.
