Regular Idaho potatoes have great nutritional benefits... if you consume the skins. However, most people don't include those when making mashed potatoes.
Instead, substitute cauliflower for the potato part, and you'll save yourself qutie a bit of carbs, and will also save yourself a spike in blood sugar/glycemic index!
Ingredients:
3-4 C steamed cauliflower
1/4 C heavy cream
2 Tbsp water
1 tsp butter (or Smart Balance)
In a food processor, combine the steamed cauliflower, heavy cream, water (as needed) and butter. I had to add water in order to get it all to process smooth, but depending on the water in your steamed cauliflower, you may not need it.
Puree for a few minutes - until smooth and creamy.
Add salt, to taste. Makes 3 servings.
