To begin with this recipe, we have to prepare a few ingredients. You can have pesto cauliflower mash using 7 ingredients and 3 steps. Here is how you can achieve it.

Many people don't know that if you chop it up and cook it, then mash it up really, really well that it will then give consistency to mashed potatoes! The first time I tried cauliflower mash, I fell in love! I used to love mashed potatoes. Love isn't even the right word, more like live off of them.

Steps to make Pesto cauliflower mash:

  1. In a pot, combine cauliflower, milk, garlic, bay leaf, and salt over medium-high heat. When it starts to boil, reduce the heat to a simmer and stir for about 10 minutes, until the cauliflower is easily pierced.

  3. Thin the pesto with a small amount of milk, if needed, and add it to the mixture. Mix well, and season to taste with salt and pepper.

When I cut out white potatoes long ago (totally personal choice, I have nothing against white potatoes!) I missed having mashed potatoes. It was like letting go of a long time best friend.
