Ingredients:
1 medium head cauliflower, cut up into florets
4 cloves crushed garlic
1/3 cup 1% buttermilk
salt and pepper to taste
1 tbsp light butter
Directions:
Steam or boil cauliflower and garlic until soft. Drain, add buttermilk, light butter, salt, pepper and purée with a hand blender. If you don't own a hand blender, you should consider getting one. It is one of my most used gadgets in my kitchen, you'll wonder how you ever lived without it. A regular blender would work fine as well.

Total Carbohydrates 5.7g - Dietary Fiber 2.0g - Sugars 2.3g - Protein 1.7g
1 large head cauliflower
3 garlic cloves
1/4 cup fresh herbs (chives work particularly well)
Sea Salt
Fresh Ground Pepper
1/2 Cup Onion
2 Tbsp Olive Oil
Chop cauliflower into smaller chunks – about bite-size pieces works well.
Peel garlic cloves and cut in half, lengthwise.
Chop onion into slices.
Steam cauliflower, garlic and onion for 15 minutes, or until cauliflower and garlic are tender enough for a fork to easily pass through.
Combine steamed cauliflower, garlic, onion, olive oil, fresh herbs, pepper, and sea salt in a food processor and blend until everything comes together into a mashed potato-like consistency. I like mine whipped.
Cook's Notes: if you love sour cream and chives on your whipped potatoes; top your whipped cauliflower with a dollop of fat free Greek yogurt and some fresh chopped chives!
Mix in some Parmesan Cheese or Cream Cheese for exciting tastes.
Mashed potatoes were always my "refrigerator magnet" to clean out the leftovers as mix-ins. These work equally well and offer delicious variety.
* Michelle's addition- try adding 2% milk or half&half for a more smooth consistency
