The Process

The most time consuming part of this whole recipe is waiting for everything to boil. Once you’ve quickly cleaned and chopped up the cauliflower, place it in your pot of boiling water and watch it cook.

While your cauliflower cooks, get your food processor ready. Feel free to add any of the option ingredients into the food processor while your cauliflower cooks.

Just Mash It

After you’ve boiled the cauliflower to perfection, strain and add to the food processor. Blend until smooth. I prefer a very smooth texture, but you may like a few chunks.

Let your mixture cool and portion it out. I make enough to freeze a few meal-size bags.
