Healthy Homemade Mashed Potatoes

Ingredients

  • 1-2 cups cauliflower, cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 4 medium sized potatoes, peeled and cut into bite-sized pieces
  • Butter and milk
  • Sour cream optional
  • Salt to taste

Instructions

  1. Using a steamer basket, steam potatoes on the stove for approximately 10 minutes. Add cauliflower, and steam until potatoes and cauliflower are soft.
  2. Transfer cooked potatoes and cauliflower into a mixing bowl, and mash, adding desired amounts of butter, milk, and sour cream. (I came close to purchasing a potato masher but decided that my pastry cutter works well enough.)
  3. Mash until desired consistency is reached, and add salt to taste.

Recipe Notes

I recommend starting with 1 cup of cauliflower and working your way up, based on how well your family enjoys the first batch.

I use 2-3 Tablespoons of butter and 3-5 Tablespoons of milk, but feel free to use more or less, depending on personal preference.
