GARLIC MASHED CAULIFLOWER
This recipe is so easy and healthy. I love mashed potatoes, and when I started the South Beach Diet® and couldn't have them, I had to find an alternative. This is an awesome alternative, and people who hate vegetables love it. I do recommend using a large food processor for this recipe.

MASHED CAULIFLOWER
For surprisingly flavorful and creamy mashed cauliflower, cook your florets not in water but in a gently simmering pot of milk seasoned with garlic and thyme. When the cauliflower is mashed (or blended), the pectin in the cauliflower will thicken and smooth the mash. Add the garlic- and herb-infused milk one tablespoon at a time until you reach a light, silky consistency. All that's needed is a little sour cream for tang. Save the leftover infused milk for braising white beans, a can of tomatoes, or for making more mashed cauliflower.

Steps:
- In a medium saucepan, combine the cauliflower, milk, garlic, thyme and 1 teaspoon salt; heat over medium-high. When the mixture begins to bubble around the edges (you don't want it to come to a full boil), reduce the heat to low and let it simmer, stirring occasionally, until the cauliflower is very tender, 10 to 15 minutes.
- Place a colander over a bowl, then drain the cauliflower, catching the milk in the bowl. Discard the thyme sprigs. Return the cauliflower and garlic to the pot. Mash the cauliflower using a potato masher, or use an immersion blender to purée until smooth. Add the reserved milk 1 tablespoon at a time, mashing or blending in between, until the cauliflower reaches desired consistency. (You'll use about about 1/4 cup of milk.)
- Stir in the sour cream, then season to taste with salt and pepper. Garnish with additional thyme leaves.
Tips:
- For the best flavor, use fresh, ripe pumpkin and cauliflower. Look for pumpkins that are heavy for their size and have a deep orange color. Cauliflower should be white or cream-colored, with tightly packed florets.
- To save time, you can use pre-cut pumpkin and cauliflower from the grocery store. Just be sure to rinse them well before using.
- If you don't have a food processor, you can mash the pumpkin and cauliflower with a potato masher or fork. However, a food processor will give you a smoother, more consistent mash.
- Feel free to add other vegetables to the mash, such as carrots, parsnips, or turnips. You can also add herbs, spices, or cheese to taste.
- Pumpkin-cauliflower mash can be served as a side dish or main course. It's also a great addition to soups, stews, and casseroles.
Conclusion:
Pumpkin-cauliflower mash is a delicious, healthy, and versatile dish. It's perfect for a weeknight meal or a special occasion. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can create a dish that everyone will love.
