Mashed Faux-Tato

Ingredients:

2 cups potatoes, 1/2 " dice

6 cups cauliflower, cut into like sized pieces (one large head)

3 Tbsp. unsalted butter

2 Tbsp. reduced fat sour cream

1 Tbsp. chives

salt and pepper

Cut potatoes and cauliflower into equal sized pieces and add to a large pot of cold salted water. Bring to boil on high heat, reduce heat slightly and cook until vegetables are tender, about 30 to 45 minutes, stirring occasionally. Drain and return vegetables to pot and heat for a minute or two to remove any excess water remaining. Remove from heat and mash, run through a food mill or potato ricer. Add the butter, sour cream and chives and blend well. Season with salt and pepper to taste or as allowed. The cauliflower keeps the mixture moist so there is no need for any additional liquids.
