Whipped Cauliflower and Potatoes with Rosemary and Parmigiano
August 6, 2020 • Side Dishes, Vegetables
Every once in awhile I throw something together very quickly for dinner that turns out to be spectacular. I had a head of cauliflower in the fridge from the previous week’s CSA and knew I was getting another one, so knew I needed to use it up. I don’t love cauliflower on it’s own, but I was reminded of sneaking it into mashed potatoes for my kids when they were young so decided I’d try an adult version of that. This is a perfect companion to Balsamic Rosemary Grilled Pork Chops. And if you have leftovers, you’ll find yourself sneaking them for breakfast the next day I promise!
