Lose Weight with Delicious Romanesco Cauliflower Mashed Potatoes

This is pure food-trickery in a super healthy way. I was skeptical about making this awesome side-dish because it’s healthy and very green.


The truth is, once you try these healthy mashed potatoes, you will fall in love with them.




Romanesco cauliflower seems a bit healthier and earthier than regular cauliflower. I say the darker the vegetable, the healthier it is.


You can substitute white cauliflower in this recipe.


INGREDIENTS:

​✅ 1 cup water

2 tbsp coconut cream

1 tsp. salt

Juice from 1 lemon

1 head Romanesco cauliflower, florets trimmed

1 tsp. garlic powder

1 shallot, minced

1 tsp. pepper

1 garlic clove, minced

2 to 3 minced chives, as a garnish

INSTRUCTIONS:

👉 Cook the cauliflower in a saucepan or steamer with a pinch of salt until the cauliflower florets are bright in color and tender when poked with a fork, about 10 minutes. Reserve the cauliflower broth by pouring it into a small bowl. Drain the cauliflower florets. Drain the cauliflower and set it aside.

👉 To the same saucepan, add a teaspoon of olive oil. When the oil is warm, add the minced shallot and cook until soft and translucent, about 5 minutes.

👉 Add the minced garlic and cook for an additional minute.

👉 Add the reserved cauliflower florets and a few splashes of broth back into the pot. Using a hand immersion blender or food processor and pulse until smooth adding additional water if needed.

👉 Add seasonings, pepper, and coconut milk. Sprinkle in pepper and pulse until combined.

👉 Add the juice from ½ lemon and salt to taste.

👉 Transfer to a bowl and garnish with more pepper and a few chopped chives.
