  • Boil the cauliflower until soft, but not mushy.
  • If desired, use half cauliflower and half potatoes.
  • Freshly roasted garlic cloves add the most garlic flavor.  If needed, use minced garlic or garlic powder.
  • Use a food processor or blender for the creamiest result.  A potato masher will yield some chunks of cauliflower.
  • Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 3 days.
