This recipe for savory keto cauliflower mash is the perfect substitute for the sought-after classic side dish: mashed potatoes.
Although creamy and delicious, carb-laden mashed potatoes are easy to indulge on and can pack in more carbohydrates than you wanted.

Cauliflower is extremely versatile and the creamy texture of this particular recipe makes it hard to believe it’s chock full of nutrients and fiber.

Instructions
- Bring two cups of water to a boil in a large simmering pot.
- Place cauliflower in boiling water and cook for approximately 15 minutes, or until very soft.
- Drain your cauliflower using a strainer, place it back in the pot, and add the milk, butter, sour cream, garlic salt, and black pepper.
- Mix all ingredients until the texture is creamy - do not over mash. I prefer using a hand-held blender to create a creamy texture but feel free to use a masher if you don’t have an electric one.
- Once you're finished mashing, garnish with chives and serve.
Recipe Notes
- You can even garnish with bacon bits or grated cheese for added flavor, healthy fats and protein.
- This dish is still great as leftovers, so make sure to store in an airtight container.
