Mashed Cauliflower {Gluten Free | Dairy Free}

While we LOVE regular mashed potatoes, mashed cauliflower can give you extra cruciferous vegetables in your diet + is a friendly candida version. Aka – you aren’t feeding any GI overgrowths if you have them! In our picture, we topped with a dollop of grass-fed butter, but feel free to leave this out. It’s SUPER tasty even without the butter {especially if you can’t do dairy!} If you want to take things up a notch, try adding in some truffle oil and pairing this with our bomb bruschetta chicken. it’s like restaurant chef quality bruschetta chicken in your own home. The added plus is that it isn’t carb heavy leaving you feeling bloat city.

If you want these extra whipped without dirtying another dish, try an immersion blender! You Just blend it right in the same pot you cooked with.
