Just a personal tip for a thicker cauli-mash: place the cauliflower into a cheese cloth and squeeze as much of the water from it as possible, after cooking it (and before adding anything else to the cauliflower). Removing the excess water from the cauliflower will fool even the hardest carb eaters.
I microwave the cauliflower for 6 minutes covered with only one tablespoon of water. Then I lift the lid and let the steam escape. Add two tablespoons of cream cheese or ricotta, garlic and bacon chips. The microwave with just a bit of water keeps it from getting watery and leaves it nice and thick.
I love mashed cauliflower. Here is a tip. Set some aside without the garlic and pepper. Add some sweetener and a splash of heavy cream on top. Tastes like Cream of Wheat, also add cacao powder or sugar free chocolate syrup to make a chocolate Malt O Meal like breakfast. Its soooo good.
@@naturelover1284 Take some onion, boil an egg, get some relish or cut up pickles, dice the egg and onion, throw it all together for some great tuna salad.
There's no need to make the garlic butter separately. Just add the cloves to the cauliflower when boiling and smash them together. Also, when the cauliflower is still hot from the boiling you can add the rest of the ingredients and do a quick mash up with a fork. The warmth of cauliflower will melt and blend everything perfectly. No need to put in the stove or food processor. Just trying to make it easier. Recipe is delicious. Thanks for sharing
The butter becomes infused with the garlic and will taste much nicer than just mashing it all together. The heat from the cauliflower is not enough to sauté the garlic which is where the flavor is at. I highly recommend at least trying the extra step and see if you can taste the difference.
@@pixelobservations Plus you don't drain away the healthy benefits of garlic when you drain the cauliflower. I think I will try it separately. And, do a 1/2 recipe trial. Don't want to waste any if I'm the only one eating it, lol.
I'm so glad I found your channel, I've been diagnosed as a type 2 diabetic with sugar almost 600, I'm now on medication and just started a low carb no sugar diet and have 60 pounds to lose down to 140 and desperately looking for someone who truly cares about helping others and I know you are the one person who can help me by making delicious recipes, I'm forever grateful. Thank You
I know this may be six-months too late, but here goes: about ten years ago I was diagnosed with diabetes, and bad cholesterol issue. My doctor sent me to the practice's dietician. Had I followed the dieticians diet I would be a medication dependent diabetic. I lost over 70lbs in a few months. After the first month my doctor said I had made good progress and she was going to hold off with medication. After three months I came back for my blood test. I followed a little stricter version of Dr. Atkins diet. I cut every carb out of my diet I could. I ate nothing that had any more than 2-carbs per serving. I ate lots of sausage, bacon, pork, beef, chicken, fish. No fruit, dark green veggies only and small portions, no juice, lots of fat to satiate my appetite. After following my version of Atkins I told my wife, as I was preparing to go get tested, that the blood test was going to show Atkins is right or was going to have me with one foot in the grave. My doctor looked at the results and told me she had never had a patient turn numbers around like I did and she had over 1500 patients. Since the original diagnosis I have kept my A1c at 6.0 or below. My last three A1c tests were 5.7, 5.3, 5.6. My bad cholesterol is at the low end for bad cholesterol. Make sure you have everything that you need to eat. When you are hungry eat, this is not a starvation diet. Do not try to find substitutes for all the foods you like. Even this cauliflower dish can be too high for you if you don't have it under control. As long as you try to live the same life and find substitutes that you think will allow you to eat as you did before you learned you are a diabetic you get well. Your food lifestyle has to change. Find new foods to like and make sure they are low-to-no carb foods, and don't cheat at all for six-months or until you have totally taken control of you eating habits and your blood sugar i below 120 nearly every time you test. Until every number and your weight is where it needs to be you have to stay on low-to-no carbs every hour, every day, every week, every month. Moderate exercise. I jog about 20-30 minutes five days a week. It helped my sugar drop about 10-15%. No intense exercise, it will raise you blood sugar. Stay away from people who don't support you and tell you it won't hurt you to eat regular food items or my favorite: go ahead and have fruit it has natural sugar. They know nothing and are dangerous to you and your health. They are incorrect and the poor advice will kill you. Good luck, I hope you are doing well.
You may want to start taking Magnesium. Also, I highly recommend that you look up Dennis Pollack on TH-cam. He has a series called Beat Diabetes that is very helpful.
OMG!!! I made these potatoes last night and they are freakishly GOOD!!! I'd have to say I prefer these to real mashed potatoes and they are so much healthier. Thank you so much Myra, You really ROCK!

Gouda, bacon & mayo in place of sour cream tastes awesome as well. For sure using the processor or emersion blender is key also. I think fresh cauli makes it better too. I've tried frozen for mash but it always tastes best with fresh like you did here.❤️ *I always use a little xantham gum to keep it from being watery too.*
Same idea, but I use a tablespoon or two of coconut flour. It soaks up the extra liquid and the sweetness of the coconut flour balances the bitterness of the cauliflower perfectly.
Xantham gum has been a life saver on keto I use it with my beef broth for the most bomb beef and broccoli EVER that's keto friendly!! I literally could eat it everyday!
Accidentally made mashed potatoes out of my hard boiled eggs in the food processor, was trying to make deviled eggs as a sauce for some chicken but realized it had a nice whipped creamy texture which tasted absolutely amazing. If you’re into eating high protein and fats this is definitely the way to go 🔥
@@MarianaLOGEN I lost the recipe but I would deshell the eggs and throw about 6 of them into a food processor to blend, I would then add a little bit of garlic salt, paprika, and cayenne pepper to give it a little bit of a kick but not too much and then proceed to add yellow mustard and mayonnaise to give it its flavour. Tried my best to find the measurements I took down but lost them sadly
Nice...I don't add the cream since there's so much water in cauliflower to start with. I melt 2 tbs of butter in a sauce pan and add about a tsp of dried parsley and 1 tsp dried chives along with 1/2 teaspoon of California Roasted Garlic powder (Kroger private selection brand) Adding the herbs to the butter helps bloom them for flavor instead of just adding dry to the cauli when ready. I add the 2 tbs of course cream with salt /pepper at the end mix. I also like the final product more rustic so I use a stick blender to get it just where I want it. Less cleanup also.
@@shaylaster1607 I just add 2tbs each butter & sour cream..... then salt /pepper/ parsley flakes / chive flakes (optional) and use a stick blender. I don't obliterate the mix... I try to keep it the consistency more like starchy potatoes. Just a preference. I'm sure you could add things like cream cheese or even ricotta cheese. It's all yummy.
Well today is Thanksgiving. I made your mashed cauliflower and man!!!!!!! It turned out AMAZING!!!!!! I whipped it in my food processor until it was smooth and creamy! My husband and I love this recipe. I’ve used quite a few of your recipes and they ALL turn out delicious. Thank you so much for helping my keto journey. Please continue with the videos. HAPPY THANKSGIVING to you and your family!!!!
Made this tonight and your dressing to go with my bacon wrapped turkey tenderloin. I never got to the gravy ... Everything was soooo good. I was really surprised w the cauli mash. The blender and ingredients are key as well as putting in sauce pan on stove to meld the flavors
Valerie Bui, I tried riced cauliflower tonight! It didn’t stink when I was microwaving it, so that didn’t bother me. As for taste, alhough it wasn’t tasteless like rice, it wasn’t horrible. I decided to try it because I was making some Asian style chicken and wanted some thing like rice. Once I got the chicken and sauce on it was pretty good. Every once in a while there would be kind of a sweet, unusual taste, but it wasn’t bad, just unexpected. Another wonderful benefit for me was that it didn’t hurt my stomach at all like rice normally does. I was talking to my mother afterward and I told her I think I’ll try it again another night. Maybe I’ll try making those delicious looking mashed ‘potatoes’ and gravy! 😊
Girl do it a few other places to get great recipes Ketoconnect, serious keto, and Cjs Kitchen all 4 channels have made my life so much easier. We have been keto for going on 3 yrs now and I really don't miss many recipes because I have found an alternative for them and usually its all homemade nothing processed so healthier in many ways. Keto has been keeping my husbands bone cancer in a range where we do not have to get treatment yet. He is no longer diabetic at all either. My psoradic arthritis is doing better because keto helps reduce inflammation.
Just remember even just doing some meals like that is healthier even if your not 100 percent you are making sure your body gets less carbs I still sometimes lost weight like that.I know it takes u out of ketosis but strangely sometimes when I wasnt trying I had several sm McDonsls frappes each week and atr mostly low carb lots of burgers w no buns & lost 18 pounds sometime within 6m prev Drs visit.I thought I gained.
Lady, I just love you and want to Thank you. I haven't even tried your recipes but I just know I'm going to love them and thank you for taking time to perfect your recipes. God Bless you
I left the hot cauliflower in the pot after straining, added garlic, butter cheese, salt, pepper and used my hand blender to blend it all, worked well.
Best recipe ever I tried it for Christmas dinner and wow , the family reviews were awesome. I have tried others but this one hit the spot it’s a keeper. Thank you 👍🏽
You are just so amazing and positive.. I love everything about your journey...I always hear you saying...."if you hear anything in the background...that's the test kitchen" ..would love to be introduced to your test kitchen chefs and hear their story...
Goood to know! If you a batch you might as well make extra! I just love pulling things outta of the freezer ! Life css as h be such a rag race! Anything to save time and enjoy life ! Thx for trying it snd letting us know!
I have tried so many caulimash recipes but they all taste like cauliflower which i cant stand.. makes me feel like puking but THIS ONE is amazing. I got so confused feeling like i was eating mash made out of potatoes! Thank you for the recipe :)
Agree with the garlic cloves with boiling or steaming the cauliflower. I have also been substituting plain Greek yogurt for sour cream for many dishes for digestion and lower carbs.
Pro tip I've learned along the way: Instead of using the food processor, use an immersion blender, it gets creamer and saves dishes to wash 😃 As always, you brought your A game on this recipe, I forsee my dinner being chicken fried steak with this as my side 🤤❤
Please don't listen to all the negative comments, there are a lot of people out here like me that really need your help and need a lot of low carb keto friendly recipes
Myra! You are amazing! I almost gave up on cauli mash and when I saw this video I knew had to give it one more try. So glad I did. This taste like the real thing. I can't believe it! I taste no difference and I'm not lying. God bless you for everything you do for us people that are trying to be healthier
People think I’m crazy bc I have a dish washer but I wash EVERYTHING by hand too! I feel like all the work you put into getting all the dishes into the dishwasher, might as well wash by hand! Thanks for the recipes 😘
My dishwasher has broken far less glasses than I have, and with its highly efficient use of sprayers, tends to use less water washing and rinsing the same amount of dishes as by hand, so mine definitely gets put to use!
I made the mash potatoes, AMAZING. I had made my son regular mash potatoes, and these were much better and even so the next day with my lunch. I didn't put in the garlic and the cheese and sour cream really makes it!!!!
I love to put only some cheese in it when mixing it together then I put it in a baking dish, cover with the rest of the cheese & bake it in the oven for short time to just warm it back up & melt the cheese on top. YUM!☺️
I do a loaded mashed cauliflower pretty regularly. I use cheddar cheese instead of parmesan, cream cheese instead of sour cream, add chopped bacon and occasionally chives, and have never made gravy. I might have to try that.
I'm going to be making The mass potatoes Wednesday. Getting ready for Thanksgiving on Thursday. I made the gravy tonight and omg. Amazing amazing. I added a little bit of garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, sage, rosemary and parsley. Excellent!!! Thank you. I never made gravy before.
you ARE the best!....."just not a dishwasher kinda girl".....so rare.....gone "minimalist" along with my keto/fasting protocols.... got a dishwasher on the end of each arm!.....no need to use electricity OR get my fave dishes/bowls, etc "stuck" in a "waiting" load......i wash most things AS i am prepping/cooking, so when i sit down to eat, i only have the plate im eating off of to wash.....yeahhh!...
Tried this recipe for the first time. I added about 2 oz of cream cheese to mine. OH MY WORD! These are the best ever. You would never in a million years believe this is cauliflower. Thank you for sharing!
i first saw this recipe weeks ago but put off making it, probably because I have been disappointed too often with recipes that claimed "tastes just like normal bread, or potatoes or whatever". But tonight I tried it and it while you could tell it wasn't just mashed potatoes, it tastes so good that my grandchildren left me no leftovers for tomorrow! Thank you for another simple and delicious recipe
Loved the expression on your face when you say you are just not a dishwasher type of person....hahhaa. I also like the fact that you don't waste. Great recipes. I'm going to try the pumpkin pie recipe.
Hello, I’ve been doing the Atkins diet (On and off) for a couple decades now. I never really liked it because of the restrictions and having to eat the foods they recommend are quite boring. Then I found you, and things changed for me. I made the mashed “potatoes” and chicken gravy today. It was such a game changer having a complete home cooked meal. Next, I try the Almond flour pizza crust and fried chicken. Thank you, my food just became a meal. 👍🏼✌🏼
I can’t wait to make this for my family!!! Thank you so much for sharing your low carb Thanksgiving recipes. So useful and you make it so easy to follow along 💞💞
As a body builder I am always looking for recipes to reduce my carb intake but have some flavor. This recipe was awesome. Now I can have the consistency of mashed potatoes without the carbs. 👍👍👍
You came up on my TikTok today and I have been looking at your social media sites all day. I have done low carb and keto before and had changed my life 4 years ago. I have since gained the weight back again. I believe that you will have a big part in helping me regain my health again! Thank you for sharing and congratulations on your engagement!
I HATE cauliflower. I was in search of a recipe for my bf since were back on the low carb bandwagon. OMG. This recipe is a GAME CHANGER. It literally taste like mashed potatoes. I added bacon and cheddar cheese on top but THANK YOU for sharing this. Sincerely, A woman who once hated cauliflower.
I’m going to make these now. I hope they are as good as everyone says. I made the keto bread , looked just like it should. Baked 22 minutes. I could not swallow the bread without water. $6 of ingredients and to the Garbage it went.
Yumm! I'm working on a sweet Keto bread recipe. In meantime, have recipe for sweet cakes with coconut flour: 1/4 cup coconut flour 3 large eggs 2 Tbs olive oil 2 Tbs water 1 tsp baking powder 1 tsp vanilla extract Pinch of cinnamon Mix ingredients together. Cook on medium low heat each side for 2-4mins.(flip when see bubbles).😋
Delicious!! omg 10/10 for sure! my husband and I loved this! I added a 1/4 tsp of better than bullion(roasted chicken) to the gravy perfection! I can't wait to make this again for thanksgiving .thanks Mayra for all the delicious recipes
I steam my cauliflower and use nutritional yeast, instead of cheese. For anyone who doesn’t like cauliflower, maybe you could mix cauliflower with potatoes-one half to one half or 2/3 to 1/3. A TH-cam keto doctor said he does that. It’s still lower carb. Just a thought.
Ohh my goodness Myra, I just love this dish, don't even need the gravy, I can eat it hot, or cold, straight from spoon, or with some vegan mince, whatever - I just LOVE IT - I make it at least once every week, sometimes more! You know, I was wrapped with your potato salad made with cauli, was so amazed with how good it is, but crikey, this beautful mash, evens beats it lol- probably because its made so fast. You have amazing recipies, every one works and tastes fantastic. I know straightaway, that I can rely on you that everything has been tried and perfected. Your recipies and those from Heavenly Fan, are the simply the best ever! 💕
Ooooh I love this!!💕💕💕 i kind of like it better with no music. I feel like it sorta helps me pay better attention to what you're saying. I love it though!!!
I came for the gravy. Just bought my xanthan gum today. I was so nervous about the Thanksgiving gravy, but this video took away ALL the anxiety without any medication! The cauli mash looks great. I usually want to cut carbs, but I think my mash will have some rutabaga (8.8g net carbs/cup) and turnips (6.06g net carbs/cup), and that will definitely add carbs (Oh, no!), but I'm really craving the tastes. 1 cup of each mixed together and a 1 cup serving gives me 5.88g net carbs. Ohhhhhh, and that gravy! I usually eat 20g carbs/day. This Thanksgiving meal, even with all of my splurges, looks like it might come in under 30-36g net carbs total. So thankful for your videos! Happy holiday!
One little advantage unsalted butter has is when you don't want your vegetables to release water when trying to get them nice and brown. This is especially so when browning mushrooms. I couldn't believe it until I tried it....no sweating into a pool of water!! Just got them nice and brown! Just wanted to pass that along. Otherwise, I use salted butter 99% of the time unless a recipe calls for otherwise.
@@LowCarbLove yeah it was a go to for Thanksgiving every year and my oldest made me show his wife how I make them because he was stationed 1200 miles away from me. Lol
Yummy. When I’m in a hurry, I cook the cauliflower in microwave at about 1/4 the time than stovetop. Plus you can use an immersion blender right in the pan while it’s still warm on stove. Saves from washing extra pieces (food professor).
Hi. I would like to share my fix for Mashed Cauli . I take 2 Birdseye Mashed Cauli and microwave them till done. Put them both in a bowl and mix in 2 Herb-Ox Sodium Free chicken bouillon packets, some garlic powder and 1/2 to 3/4 C. Sharp Cheddar Cheese. Top with Keto gravy if you like. Works for me. 👍🏼
I’ve been doing keto for a year now and can’t believe I didn’t find you before now, but am super glad I finally did! I want to try everything! Thanks for sharing your wisdom! 💗
Sooooo I made this just now. It has given me faith in cauliflower for sure. Delicious! I added sharp cheddar as you did. I used K&F beef bone broth instead. It was a bit tasteless but nothing a little salt couldn't handle. I used a hand mixer because I'd rather wash the paddles instead if the processor BUT it came out a bit chunky so I'll use the food processor next time to see if it gets smoother. Thank you so much!
I boil the Cauliflower with 2-3 smashed cloves of garlic. As for the gravy, some are sensitive to Xantham gum, I like to use full fat sour cream and cream cheese.
Hi there Myra! Can you make something that taste like Stove Top Stuffing. I make that every year with mushroom, chestnuts and garlic. Looking for a keto option.
Looks great but you know that boiling the veg leaches all the nutrition out into the water which you just drained away. Better to steam or microwave :-)
Excellent. Thank you so much for sharing this with the rest of us. This cauliflower mash and gravy (and the garlic...love the garlic) is fabulous. Again, thank you
Thank you for watching! What other healthy Keto Thanksgiving recipes would you like to see? 💕💕

Im thinking 1 serve, 5 minutes & GONE.
Made this tonight and your dressing to go with my bacon wrapped turkey tenderloin. I never got to the gravy ... Everything was soooo good. I was really surprised w the cauli mash. The blender and ingredients are key as well as putting in sauce pan on stove to meld the flavors
Wonderful!
Omg! I can’t wait to make this. I have always been really hesitant about anything cauliflower but this looks amazing!
Me, too! Just smelling cooked cauliflower makes me gag, and I don’t know how I’d get past the smell.
Everyone is! We are always learning on the keto journey. Let me know how it comes out! 💕💕😋😋
Valerie Bui, I tried riced cauliflower tonight! It didn’t stink when I was microwaving it, so that didn’t bother me. As for taste, alhough it wasn’t tasteless like rice, it wasn’t horrible. I decided to try it because I was making some Asian style chicken and wanted some thing like rice. Once I got the chicken and sauce on it was pretty good. Every once in a while there would be kind of a sweet, unusual taste, but it wasn’t bad, just unexpected. Another wonderful benefit for me was that it didn’t hurt my stomach at all like rice normally does. I was talking to my mother afterward and I told her I think I’ll try it again another night. Maybe I’ll try making those delicious looking mashed ‘potatoes’ and gravy! 😊
I think I’m gonna try to go Keto at the beginning of the year and with recipes like this it won’t be hard. Thanks!
Girl do it a few other places to get great recipes Ketoconnect, serious keto, and Cjs Kitchen all 4 channels have made my life so much easier. We have been keto for going on 3 yrs now and I really don't miss many recipes because I have found an alternative for them and usually its all homemade nothing processed so healthier in many ways. Keto has been keeping my husbands bone cancer in a range where we do not have to get treatment yet. He is no longer diabetic at all either. My psoradic arthritis is doing better because keto helps reduce inflammation.
Do it! You will not regret it. You will quickly realize how much junk you were putting into your body before Keto and overall, you will feel amazing.
Just remember even just doing some meals like that is healthier even if your not 100 percent you are making sure your body gets less carbs I still sometimes lost weight like that.I know it takes u out of ketosis but strangely sometimes when I wasnt trying I had several sm McDonsls frappes each week and atr mostly low carb lots of burgers w no buns & lost 18 pounds sometime within 6m prev Drs visit.I thought I gained.
watch Headbanger's Kitchen, his recipes are out of this world good
You can do it!💕🤗🤗🤗🤗💕💕💕
Lady, I just love you and want to Thank you. I haven't even tried your recipes but I just know I'm going to love them and thank you for taking time to perfect your recipes. God Bless you
I left the hot cauliflower in the pot after straining, added garlic, butter cheese, salt, pepper and used my hand blender to blend it all, worked well.
Best recipe ever I tried it for Christmas dinner and wow , the family reviews were awesome. I have tried others but this one hit the spot it’s a keeper. Thank you 👍🏽
Glad you liked it!!
You are just so amazing and positive.. I love everything about your journey...I always hear you saying...."if you hear anything in the background...that's the test kitchen" ..would love to be introduced to your test kitchen chefs and hear their story...
Thank you so much! 💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕
I have frozen some of my mash to see how it tasted in 2 weeks...it was great!
Great to hear!
Goood to know! If you a batch you might as well make extra! I just love pulling things outta of the freezer ! Life css as h be such a rag race! Anything to save time and enjoy life ! Thx for trying it snd letting us know!
I have tried so many caulimash recipes but they all taste like cauliflower which i cant stand.. makes me feel like puking but THIS ONE is amazing. I got so confused feeling like i was eating mash made out of potatoes! Thank you for the recipe :)
Agree with the garlic cloves with boiling or steaming the cauliflower. I have also been substituting plain Greek yogurt for sour cream for many dishes for digestion and lower carbs.
I just made this recipe and OMGosh!...It is sooo good! I'm putting this in my favorite recipe book. Thank you!!
Pro tip I've learned along the way:
Instead of using the food processor, use an immersion blender, it gets creamer and saves dishes to wash 😃
As always, you brought your A game on this recipe, I forsee my dinner being chicken fried steak with this as my side
🤤❤
I completely agree!
I used to use an immersion blender until I burned mine up. I just haven't replaced it yet, so I'm stuck washing all the food processor parts.😀
I don’t have a food processor so this is a great idea!
Please don't listen to all the negative comments, there are a lot of people out here like me that really need your help and need a lot of low carb keto friendly recipes
Myra! You are amazing! I almost gave up on cauli mash and when I saw this video I knew had to give it one more try. So glad I did. This taste like the real thing. I can't believe it! I taste no difference and I'm not lying. God bless you for everything you do for us people that are trying to be healthier
I've made this twice already and I love it! 10/10
People think I’m crazy bc I have a dish washer but I wash EVERYTHING by hand too! I feel like all the work you put into getting all the dishes into the dishwasher, might as well wash by hand!
Thanks for the recipes 😘
My dishwasher has broken far less glasses than I have, and with its highly efficient use of sprayers, tends to use less water washing and rinsing the same amount of dishes as by hand, so mine definitely gets put to use!
@@adamluther5836 Handwashing doesn't sanitize as well either.
I made the mash potatoes, AMAZING. I had made my son regular mash potatoes, and these were much better and even so the next day with my lunch. I didn't put in the garlic and the cheese and sour cream really makes it!!!!
I love to put only some cheese in it when mixing it together then I put it in a baking dish, cover with the rest of the cheese & bake it in the oven for short time to just warm it back up & melt the cheese on top. YUM!☺️
Try it with turnips, you know the turnips that make great French fries and home fries! I haven’t made hash browns yet.
I do a loaded mashed cauliflower pretty regularly. I use cheddar cheese instead of parmesan, cream cheese instead of sour cream, add chopped bacon and occasionally chives, and have never made gravy. I might have to try that.
I have a goddly mashed potatoe recipe i made and cream cheese is on it, ill just substitute the potatoe for cauli,
I'm going to be making The mass potatoes Wednesday. Getting ready for Thanksgiving on Thursday. I made the gravy tonight and omg. Amazing amazing. I added a little bit of garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, sage, rosemary and parsley. Excellent!!! Thank you. I never made gravy before.
you ARE the best!....."just not a dishwasher kinda girl".....so rare.....gone "minimalist" along with my keto/fasting protocols.... got a dishwasher on the end of each arm!.....no need to use electricity OR get my fave dishes/bowls, etc "stuck" in a "waiting" load......i wash most things AS i am prepping/cooking, so when i sit down to eat, i only have the plate im eating off of to wash.....yeahhh!...
I need to make this! I really love mashed potatoes and was probably going to cheat on Thanksgiving, but now maybe I won't have to! Looks so good!
You are such a happy spirit! Love watching you cook!
I love the fact you measure things out...easy for me to follow vs everyone that eyeballs and it always looks like a lot more than listed in the recipe
I still eat potatoes on my surplus calorie days BUT THIS IS PERFECT FOR ANYTIME!! It came out so creamy, loved it.
So glad you made it!
@@LowCarbLove This looks delicious. Do you have a vegetarian substitute for bone broth?
I making your candied pecans and your Pecan Pie on Wednesday. I can't wait!!! So EXCITED (Keto Holiday Dinner)
Thx so much for the gravy recipe. Sometimes I just crave mashed potatoes and gravy.
Tried this recipe for the first time. I added about 2 oz of cream cheese to mine. OH MY WORD! These are the best ever. You would never in a million years believe this is cauliflower. Thank you for sharing!
i first saw this recipe weeks ago but put off making it, probably because I have been disappointed too often with recipes that claimed "tastes just like normal bread, or potatoes or whatever". But tonight I tried it and it while you could tell it wasn't just mashed potatoes, it tastes so good that my grandchildren left me no leftovers for tomorrow! Thank you for another simple and delicious recipe
Loved the expression on your face when you say you are just not a dishwasher type of person....hahhaa. I also like the fact that you don't waste. Great recipes. I'm going to try the pumpkin pie recipe.
Thanks Mayra. I used to make it without the sour cream but it was missing something now I know it was the dour cream😉
You’re welcome 😊💕💕
EVERYONE (non keto too) LOVED THIS RECIPE!!! I am Richard’s wife, Julie, and my husband wants me to make this as often as possible. He loves it!!!
Hello, I’ve been doing the Atkins diet (On and off) for a couple decades now. I never really liked it because of the restrictions and having to eat the foods they recommend are quite boring. Then I found you, and things changed for me. I made the mashed “potatoes” and chicken gravy today. It was such a game changer having a complete home cooked meal. Next, I try the Almond flour pizza crust and fried chicken. Thank you, my food just became a meal. 👍🏼✌🏼
I can’t wait to make this for my family!!! Thank you so much for sharing your low carb Thanksgiving recipes. So useful and you make it so easy to follow along 💞💞
Just made my first batch! This is amazing and will become a staple at our house! Thanks so much for sharing this recipe!
Looks good. Roasted garlic adds a slightly sweeter flavor if anyone has problem with reg garlic.
As a body builder I am always looking for recipes to reduce my carb intake but have some flavor. This recipe was awesome. Now I can have the consistency of mashed potatoes without the carbs. 👍👍👍
Just made the mashers and gravy, they are Devine!!!
Looks so delish!! How much riced cauliflower would I use? Thank you so much.
You came up on my TikTok today and I have been looking at your social media sites all day. I have done low carb and keto before and had changed my life 4 years ago. I have since gained the weight back again. I believe that you will have a big part in helping me regain my health again! Thank you for sharing and congratulations on your engagement!
I HATE cauliflower. I was in search of a recipe for my bf since were back on the low carb bandwagon. OMG. This recipe is a GAME CHANGER. It literally taste like mashed potatoes. I added bacon and cheddar cheese on top but THANK YOU for sharing this.
Sincerely,
A woman who once hated cauliflower.
It's official. You are a GENIUS! ❤
An this channel is awesome.
I’m going to make these now. I hope they are as good as everyone says.
I made the keto bread , looked just like it should. Baked 22 minutes. I could not swallow the bread without water. $6 of ingredients and to the Garbage it went.
Thanks love! I'm a cook, foodie, and always been a fan of cauliflower mashed potatoes! With this gravy?!! Wow!
😋 that looks delish I can't wait for my own taste test ! ❤
Take a picture Elizabeth and tag me! 💕💕
Looks amazing, definitely need to make this. What about a keto Hawaiian bread🤗
Yumm! I'm working on a sweet Keto bread recipe. In meantime, have recipe for sweet cakes with coconut flour:
1/4 cup coconut flour
3 large eggs
2 Tbs olive oil
2 Tbs water
1 tsp baking powder
1 tsp vanilla extract
Pinch of cinnamon
Mix ingredients together.
Cook on medium low heat each side for 2-4mins.(flip when see bubbles).😋
I’d steam or bake the cauliflower. Boiling it that longs boils a lot of the vitamins right out of it. Thanks for the yummy recipe!
Delicious!! omg 10/10 for sure! my husband and I loved this! I added a 1/4 tsp of better than bullion(roasted chicken) to the gravy perfection! I can't wait to make this again for thanksgiving .thanks Mayra for all the delicious recipes
So delicious! I just made it tonight ahead of time for Thanksgiving tomorrow 💕
This looks delicious, especially the gravy!!
And can we talk about that huge nespresso machine to the right of your stove?! 😍
Update: Both faux tatos and gravy went over very well on Thanksgiving, even with non-keto fam!
I steam my cauliflower and use nutritional yeast, instead of cheese. For anyone who doesn’t like cauliflower, maybe you could mix cauliflower with potatoes-one half to one half or 2/3 to 1/3. A TH-cam keto doctor said he does that. It’s still lower carb. Just a thought.
Ohh my goodness Myra, I just love this dish, don't even need the gravy, I can eat it hot, or cold, straight from spoon, or with some vegan mince, whatever - I just LOVE IT - I make it at least once every week, sometimes more!
You know, I was wrapped with your potato salad made with cauli, was so amazed with how good it is, but crikey, this beautful mash, evens beats it lol- probably because its made so fast.
You have amazing recipies, every one works and tastes fantastic. I know straightaway, that I can rely on you that everything has been tried and perfected. Your recipies and those from Heavenly Fan, are the simply the best ever! 💕
You've convinced me to try!
Mayra these were amazing! Keto recipes can be a hit/miss for me but your recipes are always hits :)
Ooooh I love this!!💕💕💕 i kind of like it better with no music. I feel like it sorta helps me pay better attention to what you're saying. I love it though!!!
Music was a bit too loud and distracting.
I came for the gravy. Just bought my xanthan gum today. I was so nervous about the Thanksgiving gravy, but this video took away ALL the anxiety without any medication! The cauli mash looks great. I usually want to cut carbs, but I think my mash will have some rutabaga (8.8g net carbs/cup) and turnips (6.06g net carbs/cup), and that will definitely add carbs (Oh, no!), but I'm really craving the tastes. 1 cup of each mixed together and a 1 cup serving gives me 5.88g net carbs. Ohhhhhh, and that gravy! I usually eat 20g carbs/day. This Thanksgiving meal, even with all of my splurges, looks like it might come in under 30-36g net carbs total. So thankful for your videos! Happy holiday!
One little advantage unsalted butter has is when you don't want your vegetables to release water when trying to get them nice and brown. This is especially so when browning mushrooms. I couldn't believe it until I tried it....no sweating into a pool of water!! Just got them nice and brown! Just wanted to pass that along. Otherwise, I use salted butter 99% of the time unless a recipe calls for otherwise.
For garlic mash I prefer to roast my own garlic its so sweet afterwards
ooooooooo 😋😋😋😋😋😋😋😋
@@LowCarbLove yeah it was a go to for Thanksgiving every year and my oldest made me show his wife how I make them because he was stationed 1200 miles away from me. Lol
I'm not an automatic dishwasher person either!!🙃
I tried the cauliflower mash last night... it was delicious!! I'll be making this dish at least 2-3x a night😊
I made this gravy and I’m shocked how delicious it is! I just poured over grilled chicken and some cauliflower rice on the side
I'm a salted butter person too!!!
If you're not a fan of cauliflower, you can substitute daikon radish, just peel & steam and follow this recipe! I can't wait to make this! ❤
Great idea! Thanks.
Thank you for sharing because I don't care for cauliflower 🤢
Yummy. When I’m in a hurry, I cook the cauliflower in microwave at about 1/4 the time than stovetop. Plus you can use an immersion blender right in the pan while it’s still warm on stove. Saves from washing extra pieces (food professor).
Hi. I would like to share my fix for Mashed Cauli . I take 2 Birdseye Mashed Cauli and microwave them till done. Put them both in a bowl and mix in 2 Herb-Ox Sodium Free chicken bouillon packets, some garlic powder and 1/2 to 3/4 C. Sharp Cheddar Cheese. Top with Keto gravy if you like. Works for me. 👍🏼
This looks amazing!!! Perfect for Thanksgiving😍😍
Yes it is! I hope you make it for Thanksgiving dinner 💕💕💕
Definately making this
First Comment 💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕
I’ve been doing keto for a year now and can’t believe I didn’t find you before now, but am super glad I finally did! I want to try everything! Thanks for sharing your wisdom! 💗
Welcome!! Thank you!!💕💕💕
Sooooo I made this just now. It has given me faith in cauliflower for sure. Delicious! I added sharp cheddar as you did. I used K&F beef bone broth instead. It was a bit tasteless but nothing a little salt couldn't handle. I used a hand mixer because I'd rather wash the paddles instead if the processor BUT it came out a bit chunky so I'll use the food processor next time to see if it gets smoother. Thank you so much!
Keto dinner rolls next!!
Omg! This looks heavenly good!😊😋😋
Gotta make it
It's so good! 😋😋😋
I boil the Cauliflower with 2-3 smashed cloves of garlic. As for the gravy, some are sensitive to Xantham gum, I like to use full fat sour cream and cream cheese.
just me but i added some onion powder and garlic powder along with a pinch of salt and a pinch of pepper to the gravy ... so yummy
Hi there Myra! Can you make something that taste like Stove Top Stuffing. I make that every year with mushroom, chestnuts and garlic. Looking for a keto option.
Looks great but you know that boiling the veg leaches all the nutrition out into the water which you just drained away. Better to steam or microwave :-)
Thank you so much for the gravy recipe, its delish.
My pleasure 😊
Excellent. Thank you so much for sharing this with the rest of us. This cauliflower mash and gravy (and the garlic...love the garlic) is fabulous. Again, thank you
