Mock Garlic Mashed Potatoes

Last night I decided to finally try my hand at making mashed potatoes out of cauliflower. Before making this dish my mother told me never to call mashed cauliflower potatoes because it gave her cravings that cauliflower could never live up too. By the end of the night she had changed her tune and I am now allowed to call them Mock Garlic Mashed Potatoes.

What you will need, a food processor, a small cauliflower, fresh garlic, chives or onions, butter or smart balance, Greek yogurt, salt and pepper.

Steam your cauliflower, use only the bushy tops.  You can cook them in the oven wrapped in foil on the stove or even in the microwave as I did.  Add the steamed cauliflower in the food processor, blend it and then add half a cup plain Greek yogurt, one clove garlic, chives or onions, a tablespoon of smart balance or butter, pepper and salt to taste.

These Mock Garlic Mashed Potatoes will be spicy and a little hot, but will as my mother put weirdly taste like potatoes.
