I haven’t tried this yet but will be trying it soon. I’m going to try it with less beans to see if I can lower the carbs while still getting that fluffy texture we all love when it comes to mashed potatoes. There are 10 net carbs, as written.

Step 1

Add cauliflower, beans, broth, rosemary and garlic to 4-quart or larger pot over high heat. Bring to boil, then reduce heat and simmer covered for 10 minutes or until the cauliflower is tender.

Step 2

Uncover and simmer for 10 more minutes or until most of the broth has evaporated. (If a lot remains, you can pour off - sometimes cauliflower can give off a lot of moisture.)

Step 3

Remove rosemary sprig and add in butter, cream cheese, Parmesan cheese, salt and pepper. Puree with hand/immersion blender or in blender or food processor.

Step 4

Taste and add additional salt and pepper if desired.
