So I have a confession.

One of my favorite guilty pleasures is mashed potatoes.  Don’t ask me why, but for me growing up it was always an essential side dish with…well, pretty much everything!  It wasn’t until I was older and started making them myself that I realized why I loved them so much – my mom would put a TON of butter in them!  And when I say a ton, I mean enough to make even Paula Deen cringe.  Well after having mashed cauliflower at various restaurants and even a few weddings, I knew I had to make them for myself.

Yeah I may never go back to regular mashed potatoes again.

Not only do they taste super delicious, but they’re guilt-free too because there is ZERO butter!  How can one have mashed “potatoes” without butter you might ask??  Easy.  Simply add chicken stock for flavor, Greek yogurt for the creaminess factor and a little garlic and Parmesan cheese because it just tastes good.  I also added one wedge of Laughing cow cheese (garlic and herb flavored) to make these even creamier which was a suggestion made by my bestie Kristen.  She makes amazing paleo dinners ALL the time and I told her she should start her own blog ASAP because her cooking is waaaay better than mine.  Anyway, these turned out SO amazing that I’ve already made them three more times since photographing my first batch!

That’s what I call a winner folks.

Hope you guys enjoy the cauliflower mash as much as we did!  Feel free to pair this with any traditional staple whether it be a juicy steak or your favorite chicken dish, you really can’t go wrong.  I promise it will change the way you eat mashed “potatoes” though – you’re welcome.

    I love this recipe and make it fairly regularly. It takes quite a bit of self-control to not eat the entire batch in one sitting.
