Cauliflower Mash





Last week, I was boiling some cauliflower and carrots. I had them simmering with a bit of olive oil, salt, pepper, and onion powder. Unfortunately I forgot about them and they cooked for a lot longer than the intended 10 to 15 minutes. They would go to waste being overcooked like that so I went googling for a cauliflower mash type of recipe. I found this one with cream cheese which was a bonus as I had lots of cream cheese on hand. I skipped the step requiring me to boil the vegetables of course and I didn't have to season them.

The vegetables mashed up quickly with parmesan and cream cheeses. I topped with a bit of grated cheddar cheese and baked them at 350F for actually 15 to 20 minutes until the cheese started to brown lightly. It was delicious as pictured!

And here are some photos from the second time I made it days later at daughter L's request:
