Theresa’s Classic Mashed Cauliflower offers a wonderful low-carb side dish option that pairs beautifully with any savory meal. Made with just a head of cauliflower and full-fat sour cream, this recipe keeps your carb count to 11 grams per serving. It’s perfect for meal prep or a weeknight dinner, allowing you to enjoy a creamy, comforting alternative to traditional mashed potatoes. This simple dish may fit well into your low-carb eating plan, supporting your journey towards better metabolic health.
Instructions
- Using a large, very sharp knife, slice up the cauliflower into large chunks, making sure you remove as much of the stem as possible. (Tip: You can save the stems and dip in ranch dressing if you like.)
- Throw the cauliflower chunks into a big pot and fill with water, just until all the cauliflower chunks are submerged.
- Cover and bring to a boil (should take 5-7 minutes to get to a nice rolling boil) and then let it cook for another 5 minutes. Throw some salt in during the cooking process, or 1-2 bouillon cubes could work as well.
- Take it off the heat and drain out ALL the water. This is key to prevent watery mashed cauliflower!
- Put the pot back on the stove, turn to low, and mix in the sour cream. Salt and pepper to taste.
- Using an immersion blender, pulse everything right inside the pot to your desired creaminess. If you don’t have an immersion blender, you could transfer to a food processor to blend it until creamy.
- Add additional salt and pepper to taste, and serve with any savory dish!
