Mashed Cauliflower From Frozen with Artichokes

I am not ashamed that I love easy to make recipes. If that means pulling out a bag of frozen vegetables, so be it. Today I wanted to share a different spin on mashed Cauliflower with Artichokes.

Dream it.

This mashed cauliflower from frozen vegetables is a super simple recipe, and you can modify it for any diet. It is all about the ingredients you put into it. Cauliflower mash is not new, but have you tried to mix in frozen artichokes? The result is a delicious variation on mashed cauliflower.

Plan it.

Mashed Cauliflower Is Easy to Make

I have made mashed cauliflower recipe both from frozen Cauliflower florets or rice. I prefer the florets as I can put them into a steamer pot and then easily mash them with a hand blender.

What You Will Need to Make Mashed Cauliflower

You can make this recipe without the frozen artichokes and add other flavours. I was fortunate to find these frozen artichokes at my local grocery store.

You can boil frozen florets and frozen artichoke hearts or put them in a steamer. I love using a stovetop steamer pot. Once the veggies have completed cooking, transfer them into a large mixing bowl, add seasonings, and blend them with a hand masher or hand blender.

Other Variations of Cauliflower Mashed Potatoes

You can easily modify the recipe using your favourite seasonings. Want a cheesy mash? Just add cheese. The great thing about his dish is how easy it is to whip up.

• Roasted Cauliflower Mash: roast the cauliflower vs steaming it. 
• Garlic Cauliflower Mash: add garlic or garlic powder for seasoning.
• Creamy Herb and Garlic Mash: add herb and garlic flavoured cream cheese when blending.
• Cheesy Cauliflower Mash: add grated cheese to the mix.

Live it.
