CAULI MASH RECIPES

Steps:

• Spray a 9x13 baking dish with avocado oil.
• Preheat your oven to 375 degrees f.
• Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat.
• Cook the beef until no longer pink, crumbling the meat as you go with a wooden spoon. Drain any excessive grease.
• Add in the onion, celery, bell peppers, garlic, then continue to cook over medium heat, for about 4 more minutes.
• Stir in the diced tomatoes with their juice, peas, oregano, paprika, and most of the parsley. Reserve some parsley to garnish your dish. Season with sea salt and pepper to taste.
• Simmer over medium heat until the sauce thickens a bit, about 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, boil or steam the cauliflower florets in salted water until very tender. Drain really well and stir in the butter. Using a potato masher, mash your cauliflower until smooth, then season with sea salt and pepper to taste. Alternatively, you can transfer your cooked cauliflower to a blender or food processor, then pulse until just pureed.
• Spoon your meat and veggie mixture into your prepared baking dish then spoon the cauliflower mash on top, leveling it with a spoon, as shown in the photos.
• Bake for about 20 minutes in your preheated oven, or until bubbly and golden.
• Garnish with remaining fresh parsley.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°. Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add cauliflower florets and cook until tender, 10 minutes. Drain well, pressing with paper towels or a clean dish towel to remove as much excess water as possible. Return to pot and mash cauliflower with a potato masher until smooth and no large chunks remain. Stir in cream cheese and milk and season with salt and pepper and mash until completely combined and creamy. Set aside. Make beef mixture: In a large skillet over medium heat, heat oil. Add onion, carrots, and garlic and cook until softened, 5 minutes. Add ground beef and cook until no longer pink, 5 minutes more. Drain fat. Return skillet over medium heat and stir in frozen peas and corn and cook until warmed through, 3 minutes more. Season with salt and pepper. Sprinkle meat with flour and stir to evenly distribute. Cook one minute more, add broth, and stir mixture until slightly thickened, 5 minutes. Top beef mixture with an even layer of mashed cauliflower and bake 20 minutes or until there is very little liquid visible and the cauliflower is golden. Broil if desired. Garnish with parsley before serving.
