Description

Cauliflower florets and a whole head of garlic roasted together at 400°F for 30–35 minutes, then blended in a food processor with olive oil and coconut milk until smooth and creamy. A low-carb, Paleo-friendly alternative to mashed potatoes with a rich, nutty roasted flavor that stands on its own.

Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F.

  5. Remove from oven. Place roasted cauliflower in a food processor.
  6. Squeeze roasted garlic cloves out of the head into the food processor.
  7. Pulse until cauliflower and garlic begin to form a paste. Add olive oil and coconut milk.
  8. Process to preferred texture, adding more coconut milk for a smoother result.
  9. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

Note

Squeeze the roasted garlic head firmly over the food processor — the cloves will pop right out. A fork helps with stubborn ones.

For a smoother result, add more coconut milk a tablespoon at a time. For a chunkier texture, pulse less.
