Chef's notes
This mashed cauliflower recipe is a delicious low carb or keto alternative to mashed potatoes. It'd be great for Thanksgiving, but note that it serves 3 to 4. If you're feeding a crowd, scale the recipe up accordingly. Depending on the size of your food processor, you'll likely need to work in batches.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. They reheat perfectly in the microwave! You could also reheat them in a covered baking dish in a 350°F oven.
