Tasty Tuesday Enjoyers,
Ditch the Spuds, and embrace the Fluff! Introducing: Garlic Mashed Cauliflower!!
This one is for the comfort food lovers like myself! If you are craving that velvety smooth, melt-in-your-mouth goodness of mashed potatoes, but are staying disciplined with your caloric intake, say hello to your new best friend. This is a low-carb, nutrient-packed alternative that packs all the flavor and satisfaction without the guilt. Loaded with vitamins, minerals, and fiber, cauliflower transforms into a fluffy, creamy dream thanks to a touch of garlic and magic (okay, mostly a food processor). I love this recipe because it really does trick your mind into believing you are eating classic mashed potatoes.
So ditch the spuds, embrace the fluff, and indulge in this guilt-free side dish that’s perfect for weeknight meals, holiday feasts, or just because. Trust me, your taste buds (and your body) will thank you!
Have a great week everyone!!
All is well❤️
