What does it take to create nearly the same mouthfeel and flavor of traditional mashed potatoes, except low-calorie and low-carb? Ditching the potatoes! For anyone looking for a low-cal and low-carb substitute for potatoes, try mashing cooked cauliflower and turnips with the usual butter and milk plus a splash of Tabasco which – do not ask me how or why, it stumps me – makes all the difference in the taste. Choose Mashed Cauliflower (and all its variations) whenever a stew, a skillet supper, calls for something "under" to sop up the sauces and gravies. Whole Food, Simply Prepared, "Plain" But Perfect.
