Mixing cauliflower and potato is a GREAT way to get true mashed potato taste and texture, with a healthier, lower calorie spin. Woohoo!
Recipe Source: http://www.hungry-girl.com/...
Ingredients
1 large (about 13-oz.) potato
3 cups cauliflower florets
3 tbsp. fat-free half & half
1 tbsp. light whipped butter or light buttery spread
1/4 tsp. salt
pepper and additional salt, to taste
1/2 tsp. crushed garlic
Instructions
Bring a large pot of water to a boil. While waiting for the water to boil, peel and cube the potato.
Once water is boiling, add peeled potato cubes and cauliflower. Wait for the water to return to a boil, and then reduce heat to medium. Cook for 15 – 20 minutes (until potatoes and cauliflower are very tender).
Remove the pot from heat and strain out all of the water. Transfer contents to a large bowl, and add half & half, butter/buttery spread, salt, and (if you like) crushed garlic. Mash it all together with a potato masher, until completely blended. Season to taste with pepper and additional salt. Enjoy!

Very tasty. They taste a little different from authentic mashed potatoes, but interesting and definitely recommended. The mashed potato lover in my family noted they tasted different but he still liked them (enough to get seconds!)
