This Mashed Cauliflower recipe is so tasty, and a great substitute for mashed potatoes. L.J. and I tried these out on Wednesday night while the other kids where at friends houses and he couldn't even tell the difference. 

There is a slight texture difference, and the cauliflower has a slightly sweeter taste then potatoes but by the time it was fully loaded it served the prefect accompaniment to my fried pork chops and Sautéed Beet Greens.

 Cauliflower Mashed Potatoes are easy to make and an easy way to sneak in more veggies and cut carbs. 

Here's how to make Mashed Cauliflower Potatoes: 

I used 1 1/2 heads of cauliflower. Adjust amount as needed dependent on how many people you are serving.
