Ingredients

• 1 large head cauliflower
• 3 garlic cloves
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 0.5 cup unsweetened almond milk
• 2 tablespoons nutritional yeast
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
• 2 tablespoons, chopped chives

Directions

Step 1

Trim the leaves and core from the cauliflower. Cut the cauliflower into small florets and rinse thoroughly.

Step 2

In a large pot, bring water to a boil and add a pinch of salt. Add the cauliflower florets and garlic cloves to the pot.

Step 3

Boil the cauliflower and garlic for about 10-12 minutes, or until the cauliflower is tender and easily pierced with a fork.

Step 4

Drain the cauliflower and garlic in a colander and let them sit for a minute to remove excess moisture.

Step 5

Transfer the drained cauliflower and garlic to a food processor. Add the olive oil, unsweetened almond milk, nutritional yeast, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper.

Step 6

Blend the mixture on high until smooth and creamy. You may need to scrape down the sides of the bowl a couple of times for even blending.

Step 7

Adjust seasoning to taste, adding more salt or pepper if desired.

Step 8

Transfer the creamy cauliflower mash to a serving bowl and garnish with chopped chives.

Step 9

Serve hot alongside your favorite dishes as a dairy-free alternative to traditional mashed potatoes.
