Mashed Cauliflower

My kids love this Mashed Cauliflower Recipe that's filled with healthy fats for a decadent side dish. Picky kids can't resist mashed cauliflower, and what a great way to get some veggies on the plate that are not starch filled, like potatoes. Mashed cauliflower is a low-carb alternative to mashed potatoes, rice and pasta. It's heavenly under steak and under scrambled eggs for a breakfast bowl. A great go-to for any weight loss journey.
