Garlic Mashed Cauliflower
This year, my goal is to have 3/4 of my plate filled with fruit and veggies. This is a healthy, tasty way to fill up the plate.
Dovetailing Tip: You already prepared the cauliflower for Meal 1. Because it is processed, you will only need to steam it for 5-7 minutes.

Total Time:
Ingredients:
| 1 head | cauliflower, cut into florets |
| 1 tablespoon | olive oil |
| 1 clove | garlic, smashed |
| 1/4 cup | grated Parmesan cheese |
| 1 tablespoon | reduced-fat cream cheese |
| 1/2 teaspoon | kosher salt |
| 1/8 teaspoon | freshly ground black pepper |
Directions:
Place a steamer insert into a saucepan and fill with water to just below the bottom of the steamer. Bring water to a boil. Add cauliflower, cover, and steam until tender, about 10 minutes.
Meanwhile, heat olive oil in a small skillet over medium heat; cook and stir garlic until softened, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat.
Transfer half the cauliflower to a food processor; cover and blend on high. Add remaining cauliflower florets, one at a time, until vegetables are creamy. Blend in garlic, Parmesan cheese, cream cheese, salt, and black pepper.
