GARLIC CAULIFLOWER "POTATOES" RECIPE

Ingredients

1 large head of cauliflower, cut into florets
1/4 cup almond milk
1 tbsp. ghee
6 cloves garlic
fresh chives, chopped
salt and pepper, to taste

Directions

Preheat oven to 400°
Pop out cloves of garlic from head, but do not chop. Place in aluminum foil packet and drizzle with a tiny bit of olive oil and seal the foil. Bake for 20-30 minutes. Allow garlic to cool and squeeze cloves out of skin
As garlic roasts, in a large pot, bring 2-3 inches of water to a boil
Place in cauliflower florets (I like to place my steamer insert inside first to make it easier to fish out), and cover
Steam for 12-14 minutes, until completely tender
Drain and return cauliflower to pot
Add roasted garlic, milk, ghee, and salt to the cauliflower
Use an immersion blender or food processor to combine until smooth (think mashed potatoes, people!)
Top with chives and freshly ground pepper
Fool everyone with this healthy alternative to potatoes!
