MASHED CAULIFLOWER AND SPINACH

To make this Mashed Cauliflower and Spinach, you’ll start out by cooking cauliflower florets in salted boiling water until soft and tender. While the cauliflower cooks, we sautéed some diced onion in a little bit of extra virgin olive oil, then added the fresh spinach to the pan to cook until just wilted.

We pulsed the cooked and drained cauliflower in a food processor, then added the onions, spinach, butter, and seasonings – and pulsed again to combine.

We prefer to serve our Mashed Cauliflower and Spinach with a slightly chunky consistency, but you could process everything to more of puréed consistency. Either way – this easy, healthy side dish is delicious!

INGREDIENTS

• 1 large head organic cauliflower, trimmed down to the florets
• 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
• 1 cup sweet onion, diced small
• 2 cups organic fresh baby spinach
• ½ teaspoon kosher salt
• ¼ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
• 1/8 teaspoon garlic powder
• 2 tablespoon butter (or clarified butter or ghee for Whole30)

INSTRUCTIONS

1. Bring a medium pot of salted water to a boil and add cauliflower. Cook just until tender, about ten minutes.
2. While cauliflower is cooking, heat a medium sauté pan over medium high heat and add olive oil.
3. Once hot, add onions and sauté for 4-5 minutes or until completely cooked.
4. Add the spinach, toss and remove from heat.
5. Drain the cauliflower but retain about a cup of the cooking water.
