Cauliflower Mashed "Potatoes"
This creamy mashed cauliflower recipe is a delicious alternative to traditional mashed potatoes. Tender cauliflower is cooked until soft, then mashed with milk, butter, sour cream, and seasonings, resulting in a velvety and flavorful side dish. A sprinkle of snipped chives adds a pop of freshness to this comforting dish. Perfect for a cozy meal or as a lighter option to accompany your favorite main course.
